    Verdict

    James Fanshawe and Fillies Group races have gone hand in hand this term and the Newmarket handler is fancied to pick up a further prize with Soar, who gets the nod over Right Answer and Valetin, who will not make life easy for the selection. Royal Alchemist and Satin Finish are others that are entitled to attract support to reach the frame as both are open to acres of improvement and arrive here after solid efforts last time. While Valetin has some valuable course experience to her name and should also make a bold bid to maintain her unbeaten status. The daughter of King Of Kings put up a respectable time here last month and looks sure to have her share of supporters. However, Soar's Queen Mary form was given a significant boost when Sienna Gold won the Newbury Super Sprint earlier in the month and, with this extra furlong not expected to be a problem, Soar is fancied to have the class to cope with the task in hand today.
