ANIMAUXSELLE had been taking on stiffer opposition prior to her latest third, when she was only a neck behind a subsequent winner with Mancora behind. She doesn’t have a great strike-rate but this trip could prove ideal so she can thwart the hat-trick bid of Candy For All. Our Petunia refused to settle over a mile last time but that was a rare failure and Joan Scott’s filly also merits serious consideration. Only In August looks best of the rest.
