Verdict

Mersey was placed over 6f last time and drops back down in distance for this along with SATISFYING. A runner-up at Windsor recently, the latter was fourth over the minimum trip at Ascot on her earlier debut and gets the vote to confirm running with Collect Call. The Godolphin filly Zalpa will also be suited by this shorter trip while a slew of newcomers are worth noting including Vivionn, Munaajaat and Sabai Sabai though Heartwarming is a half-sister to stablemate and Group 2 winner Heartache and sports her owners first colours ahead of Kurious, a half-sister to Group 1 winning sprinter Tangerine Trees.
