        Verdict

        MISS COMPLEX is bred for pace and very nearly made a belated winning debut at Bath where she just failed to hold Milibar over 6f. She should have come on for the run and this looks within her capabilities. Elegant Girl has been running really well on soft ground and deserves a change of fortune, though she may have to wait for a nursery. How Sweet It Is has shown her best form to date on the all-weather surfaces so the main threat may come in the shape of Well Bank, who made an eye-catching debut at Doncaster. That was over 7f but connections obviously believe he has the pace for this.
