        Verdict

        ROZALIA landed a double over shorter trips with last month’s success at Goodwood. A half-sister to former stablemate and Northumberland Plate winner Higher Power, James Fanshawe’s mare should last home. Mellow Magic has been thereabouts over today’s trip lately and is closely matched with Single on earlier running while Hellenista is fitted with cheekpieces having just prevailed when odds-on in Class 6 company at Redcar.
