Romantic View ran no sort of race in the Albany at Ascot last time but had won nicely at Goodwood before that. Paul Hanagan has ridden the last two winners and teams-up with last year’s winning trainer again on Lady In Question. She ran better than her finishing position suggests in Ireland last time and stablemate Clef is not without a shout with an apprentice taking 5lb off her back. But Frankie’s presence on Chelmsford maiden winner SALAMAH takes the eye and Simon Crisford’s filly gets a speculative vote to continue winning ways with improvement expected. Pichola Dance, Blushing Rose and Parsnip are others worthy of consideration in an open affair.
