Charlie Appleby’s yard remains in fine form and TIMELESS MELODY will likely have improved since finishing fourth at Newcastle on her debut. She finished behind a couple of stablemates, who have both subsequently won, and that form looks stronger than Sassi Neri’s debut effort at Lingfield. Delphinus is more exposed on her first outing for new connections having been sold from the Gosdens’ yard and the latter run Glorious Romance, a half-sister to no less than nine winners, while Hello Jumeirah is a another newcomer to note.
