Verdict
NOBLEST finished third at Newmarket last month and the first two home have both subsequently won - William Haggas' filly can land this on the strength of that form. Carnachy made a promising start when runner-up at Carlisle and is expected to improve past the more-exposed Teosroyal. She looks the biggest danger as Brigantian was a long way behind the selection last time and Fly Alone finished last of 10 on her racecourse debut at Wolverhampton.
