In depth

Verdict

Noble Albert finished well ahead of National Star when fourth over a shorter trip here but AMBER DEW gets another chance. A beaten favourite on her last couple of outings, a visor is applied after finishing third at Lingfield and that may bring the required improvement. Nordic Glory is also a likely improver but Magic Warrior is going the wrong way. Mackenzie Rose is a full sister to three winners and a half-sister to a host of others and Mark Johnston sent out last year’s winner.
