In depth

Verdict

CHELSEA ANNIE finished strongly over 6f here last month to claim second place. She gave indication this longer trip will suit and is just preferred to Turn Back Time, third over today’s trip at Brighton on her debut. Fille De La Lune was still beaten a long way when runner-up at Musselburgh with jockey bookings suggesting the newcomer Maggie's Joy, a half-sister to a couple of winners, is the yards first choice.
