This is wide-open as Chain Of Daisies is penalised for winning a Listed event at Newmarket last year and was way below par on her reappearance. More Mischief ran well in this grade at Ayr when second to the progressive Maleficent Queen and Nezwaah was placed in Listed company at Newbury recently and could go close. Imshivalla won a handicap at Epsom but steps up in class along with the less-exposed pair Intimation and Rosental. The latter duo are preferred to Sagely while Tears of The Sun finished ahead of Sound Of Freedom when narrowly beaten in Listed company at Nottingham last time. OAKLEY GIRL is yet another to consider as she steps back up in distance after a fourth in a Group 3 at Epsom. Stuart Williams’ filly has already won three times on the all-weather so should be suited by the surface.
