Verdict

ROMAN MIST carries a penalty for her Listed success at Kempton and looked like following up in the Group 3 Princess Elizabeth Stakes at Epsom only to be run out of it in the closing stages. She's taken to get the better of Thunder Beauty, who has run very well in Group 2's at the Curragh and Ascot in recent weeks but has only managed to win once in fourteen starts. The latter was formerly trained by Ken Condon, who sends Let's over from Ireland and she's been a regular at this sort of level without really looking like winning one. Rising Star deserves another crack in this grade after landing the Kensington Palace Handicap at Royal Ascot when Dubai Love, who was conceding 7lb, was beaten just over three lengths.
