Race preview
SAINTE TARTARE ran well on her belated career debut in November and showed nice ability in a useful course maiden over Christmas. That form has worked out well, with the runner-up and fourth-placed horses scoring subsequently, and while she drops in distance, she has soft ground in her favour and seems to be reliable. Karamoja was placed in an Auteuil Listed hurdle in September 2023 and is closely matched with the selection on a strict formline through Uhavemeinstitches (at Clonmel). However, she is on a retrieval mission having pulled up here at the Festive meeting. Nastya has shown ability but needs to improve to win.
