Verdict
Enstar was having her first start of the year when third in Listed company at Nottingham and looks at home at this level. She’s taken to confirm running with Very Dashing while Desert Haze finished ahead of Materialistic when third over a mile at Goodwood and has the beating of Epsom Icon on collateral form. But CHAIN OF DAISIES (NAP) is the one to beat on these terms with a recent reappearance under her belt. Henry Candy’s mare won a Listed race before landing a Group 3 at Windsor last August and that’s best form on show. More Mischief was beaten three lengths in last year’s renewal while winning handicapper Tegara has a stack to find at the weights.
