Verdict
Maamora is the class act in this on past form but she has looked woefully out of sorts in two runs this term and is now visored. Waliyak was beaten a length by Lola Showgirl in the Kensington Palace at Ascot but there will be eyebrows raised if she doesn’t reverse that form on 20lb better terms. Glesga Gal was third in this grade at Sandown and Stunning Beauty boasts solid handicap form but POTAPOVA is the one with untapped potential and she wasn’t given a hard time when surrendering her unbeaten record in the Coronation Stakes when last seen.
