Day of Destiny was beaten less than a length when third over C&D last time with Stetson in close attendance. Both should be in the mix again but ELEGANT OPHELIA is less exposed. A runner-up at Lingfield on a couple of occasions last month, Dean Ivory's filly will appreciate this longer trip and can open her account. Scribe never looked like following up his earlier win at this track when seventh back here on Monday and the remainder make even less appeal.
