Kensington Palace Stakes Fillies' Handicap (Str)
Summer Of Love heads the early markets after Saeed bin Suroor's Dark Angel filly scored comfortably enough on her return at Kempton and, with an opening handicap mark of 88, she can go well with a clear run, but Irish raider ADELAISE is still preferred. A little unlucky when short of room before finishing fourth here last year, she won the Listed Snowdrop Stakes at Kempton in April beating the 100-rated Choisya by a head, suggesting a mark of 98 here is workable. She looks as if she stays further so a fast-run mile could be ideal and, with William Buick booked to ride, she appears to have every chance. Villanova Queen won this last year and returns to handicap company boasting a chance, along with the lightly-raced pair Fakhama and Doha.
