Verdict

SUPREME QUEST has shown plenty of early pace and the return to today's minimum trip shouldn't be a problem. She raced upsides the winner for most of the way over 6f at Salisbury last time and is just preferred to Sir Maximilian. The latter went close in soft ground at Ascot last time and will be thereabouts if handling this faster surface. Million Faces showed ability in a couple of starts last term while Imperial Legend and Mon Duchess look likely improvers.
