Verdict
DUKE OF FIRENZE is by Pivotal out of the Fillies' Mile winner Nannina so it's a surprise that he's been sent to Carlisle to lose his maiden tag but he made a reasonable debut at Windsor at should take this. Premier Choice finished runner-up over this trip at Redcar before appearing to find 7f and softer ground too much for him at York. Dubious Escapade showed enough promise at Hamilton to suggest she can get involved while there was serious interest in Glamorous Angel on his debut and he must be better than he showed that day.
