Verdict

The well-bred DUFAY made much of the running on her reappearance at Newmarket and, despite weakening close home, still finished well ahead of Queen's Code. She'll strip fitter today and similar front-running tactics could pay dividends on this sharp track. Golden Glimmer and Angelic Guest both made promising debuts and are likely improvers. Mick Channon's filly is just preferred of that pair today and they are preferred to the more-exposed pair Dark Intention and Zeb's Fantasy.
