Little racecourse evidence to work on but Play That Tune created a good impression on her recent Kempton debut second (pair well clear) behind Londonnetdotcom and gets the TEAMtalk vote. Henry Cecil's filly came to the track with a tall reputation and sets a fair standard with the benefit of experience behind her. Peruvia showed plenty of promise on her Newmarket bow but may be better over slightly further. John Dunlop's Carenage, along with well-bred newcomers Compton Emerald (Gerard Butler) and Hammiya (Marcus Tregoning) are worth noting in the betting for further clues in what should be a most informative maiden.
