Aurora Charm is almost certainly better than she showed at Kempton last year where she missed the break and raced with the choke out but REGAL FANFARE looks the one to beat. Sir Michael Stoute’s filly was only beaten a length at Lingfield last month, despite blowing the start. Newmarket fifth Decipher is another likely improver but Mysterious Love is fitted with headgear having failed to sparkle on her first run for David Menusier.
