Mince bounced back with a win at the Shergar Cup meeting at Ascot last Saturday with Lady Gorgeous back in third. Roger Charlton's filly should make another bold bid as Frankie was on board for her earlier win. Ultrasonic produced her best effort to date when coming home a clear winner at Newmarket last time though it was soft ground on that occasion while Artistic Jewel as strong claims on her latest success in a conditions race at Doncaster. MISS WORK OF ART makes her belated reappearance having ended last season with a respectable fourth in the Cheveley Park at Newmarket. She gets the vote as Richard Fahey is likely to have her ready for this. Stablemate Sioux Rising and Switcher are not far behind the leading contenders but the remainder have their work cut out on today's terms.
