Verdict
Crimson Queen won easily at Newbury but a 6lb penalty could make life a lot tougher in this higher grade contest. Cats Eyes and Sulis Minerva have been knocking on the door while Phoenix Clubs rarely runs a bad race and Cincinnati Kit has won three of her last four, though she's another with a bit to prove in this grade. MINALISA tackles 5f for the first time but has being showing plenty of speed over an extra furlong and is quite lightly-raced. Last week's Warwick winner may be capable of defying her penalty with Dreaming Of Rubies and Mey Blossom best of the rest.
