This is quite tricky as the best form is held by Oriel but she's now been a beaten favourite in three of her four starts. Richard Hannon tries her in an eye-shield but she hasn't looked one to trust so far and is overlooked in favour of SIMPLE MAGIC. John Gosden's filly made her debut at Ascot in May and showed good pace for a long way behind subsequent Queen Mary winner Rizeena before fading. She's been given a nice break and could just be too strong for Gentle Breeze, who was just touched off by Inspiriter in a Godolphin 1-2 at Lingfield.
