This probably won't take much winning but we are still awaiting signs of promise from the unexposed Allegra Royale. Fairy Mist finished ahead of Kuanyao and Comadoir over 6f here in June but the latter was returning from a lengthy absence that day and may well reverse the placings over this extra furlong. French Press and Harry Bosch shouldn't be far away but MEDICEAN MELODY can probably be forgiven her run over a mile here last time, when she was slowly away, having won over track and trip previously - the recent rain is in her favour.
