Verdict

CANTORA ended last year with a double including a victory over a mile on testing ground. This extra distance should be within her compass and George Boughey’s filly is preferred to the more recent winners. Of those, Rubina Rose scored at Wolverhampton last month and has more scope than Chelmsford winner Star From Afarhh while Miss Harmony makes more appeal than How Hard Can It Be of the remainder.
