Muffri'Ha, whose yard won this in 2014, is the class act as she was placed in a Group 1 at Meydan earlier this year. She also won twice here last autumn, including a Group 3, but hasn’t raced since May and that’s a slight concern. Ralph Beckett runs three but the most progressive is AMABILIS (NAP), who is now rated 102 and is well worth a try in this higher grade after sauntering to victory in a decent handicap at Ascot on her latest start. Lincoln Rocks is tough and has enjoyed a profitable campaign but she’d need a career-best to concede weight all round. Permission and On Her Toes may prove the pick of the remainder.
