In depth

Verdict

A tricky contest with three similar types making their seasonal debuts. Miss Chicane's third over a mile at Sandown was her best effort and Set To Music managed a third at Beverley when last seen in September. However, CINTA ended last year placed over 7f on the Polytrack at Lingfield and Marco Botti's filly may handle today's track better than her main rivals. Dazzling Valentine won at Lingfield in October but then struggled off a higher mark, while Musselburgh winner Fairlie Dinkum looks best of the rest.
