Set To Music improved for the step up in trip when landing the Galtres Stakes at York last time. She beat Cracking Lass, Polly's Mark and Spin well enough, though it has to be said a couple of the better fancied horses underperformed and MEEZNAH is preferred here. She ran flat at Newbury last time but had landed the Group 3 Lillie Langtry at Goodwood in good style before that and is given the chance here to prove her latest running all wrong. Sense Of Purpose looks a real threat as she improved to won a Group 3 race at Leopardstown last month and Dermot Weld's filly makes more appeal than her compatriot and winning handicapper Goldplated.
