A race full of imponderables that can go to Adorata, who has at least proved that she is a filly in-form and looks a more reliable proposition than Noble Mind and the ex-Irish Tarkeez, who will make them all go some if he takes to the surface. That said, Classic Expression has faced some fair sorts in both his starts so far and does not have much to find in this company. Bonus Points is related to a couple of winners as a juvenile and should also be up to making an impact at this sort of level. Brian Meehan is more than capable of getting one ready first time out and a market move could prove to be significant. However, Adorata comes here on the back of her best effort so far - where she went down fighting behind a 72-rated rival at Newmarket. A repeat of that effort will suffice here and there will be very few excuses to be forwarded if Adorata cannot get off the mark this afternoon.
