There should better to come from LA VITA NOVA, who has acquitted herself well in a couple of handicaps at the Curragh since returning to action, latterly coming home a good fourth in a pretty valuable, 25-runner contest upped to 2m. The daughter of Gleaneagles is unexposed and shades preference ahead of smart jumps performer Zanahiyr, who was having his first run on the Flat for almost 5 years when fourth of 15 over this C&D in May. The consistent Tribal Star is also high on the shortlist.
