Bonza Girl rattled up a five-timer before finishing third in this grade at Doncaster but probably prefers a bit further. Cap Soleil was never seen with a chance in a Grade 1 at the Festival but she’ll strip fitter here and has a touch of class. Brillare Momento won this in 2017, with Casablanca Mix only fourth, but Martin Keighley’s mare has become hard to place. SUNSHADE didn’t reappear until Newbury last month and finished ahead of Late Night Lily on similar terms. She will be fresher than most so gets a tentative vote while Chilli Filli is another who has been lightly raced. Mags Mullins sends over Agusta Gold and it’s difficult to see the Irish mare finishing out of the frame given she was placed in a Grade 3 at Limerick on her latest outing.
