Race preview
The dual winner of the Champions Fillies & Mares at Ascot, KALPANA looks to have been found a good opportunity on her return to the fray. Andrew Balding's charge ran a fine race in Group 1 company at the Curragh on last year's reappearance and will likely prove a cut above today's opposition if anywhere near her best. West Wind Blows forced the mighty Calandagan to pull out all the stops at Meydan in March. A similar effort would see him go close, while Arabian Force could also make his presence felt.
