The Gosden yard have won this in four of the last six years and AL ASIFAH will be at short odds to continue the sequence. The daughter of Frankel has looked something special in her starts at Haydock and Goodwood, the latest in a Listed contest, and can complete a hat-trick despite the step-up in class. Newmarket maiden winner Infinite Cosmos attempted to make all in the Musidora at York but couldn't quicken when headed. She may do better over this trip, a remark that also applies to Midnight Mile, who was staying on behind, and Bluestocking, who couldn't get past Warm Heart in a Newbury Listed race. French raider Crown Princess was narrowly beaten in a Longchamp Group 1 last month
