Verdict

Mile High was beaten just a head at Epsom behind Mezajy but the winner has been beaten twice subsequently and Charles Hills' filly couldn't handle the step-up to Listed grade at Chester. Heartless made a promising debut here last month but disappointed when well beaten at Doncaster and she'll need to do much better. Concord looked very much in need of the experience at Lingfield last month and may need another run while the well-connected newcomers In The House and Symbolist are by Montjeu and Yeats respectively and likely to need further. DESDICHADO is by Pivotal and a half-brother to a couple of winners so he could have enough pace to make a successful debut.
