Parisian Elegance was a useful juvenile, putting up her best performance when third behind Leggy Lou in the Group 3 Princess Margaret Stakes, but lost her form towards the backend and there was little encouragement on her return. Entrap was a fair third behind Misterah in a Ayr Listed event last term but has been off for over seven months and, along with Lupine, may need the outing while Madame Boulangere faces no easy task under a 12lb penalty. Bright Edge was progressive early last term but again returns from a lay off so the vote goes to Pastel who acquitted herself with credit in top company last term and should appreciate the drop in class.
