Verdict
This looks a pretty ordinary renewal of a Group 3 that's produced some speedy fillies down the years but Dainty Dandy was third in the Princess Margaret at Ascot in July and had finished ahead of Grizzel in the Albany Stakes earlier – she possibly found 5f too sharp last time at Newbury. Elliptical, Pellucid and Mystic Dawn have all won their only race so far with the former preferred of that trio. But we are relying on PERFECT ANGEL, who impressed with her attitude when holding off Promising at Goodwood. The second was only beaten a neck in last Saturday's Prestige Stakes at Goodwood. Madam Dancealot makes more appeal than Bahamadam and Simmie of the others.
