Verdict
Flambeau is a useful filly but the ground may not be fast enough for her. Rainfall, on the other hand, prefers a softer surface though would take all the beating if able to reproduce her third in the Sun Chariot at Newmarket a year ago. Jacqueline Quest has ability but doesn't always show it and Mosqueras Romance has more on her plate than when second in a Listed race in Germany last month. DUBAI QUEEN probably has something to find with a few of these at the weights but she's not done a lot wrong this year and ran well over a mile at the Royal meeting here in June when runner-up in a Listed handicap. Luca Cumani's three-year-old gets the nod.
