Verdict

Main Edition remains unbeaten having won the Albany at Ascot three weeks ago. But she was all out to beat the Godolphin filly La Pelosa a neck and that pair are hard to separate. Angel's Hideaway, Pretty Pollyanna and Chicas Amigas were all beaten in the Albany and it’s difficult to see any of that trio reversing running but improvement is expected from GOSSAMER WINGS. Aidan O’Brien has won the last two renewals with subsequent Group 1 winners Clemmie and Roly Poly and his Scat Daddy filly should appreciate the return to 6f having just missed out in the Queen Mary at Ascot when finishing in front of Come On Leicester. Chaleur is upped in class having landed the odds in novice company last month while Alicia Darcy looks up against it.
