A couple of these stand out. Luna Magic scored over a mile here last month and has gone close over today’s longer trip before but RAYAA is preferred. The latter was making her seasonal reappearance when runner-up over 1m2f at Pontefract a fortnight ago and Mick Appleby’s mare looks capable of scoring off her current mark on that evidence. Sula Island was third in testing ground at Leicester recently but beaten a long way and Stosur was also nearly 10 lengths behind the winner when placed at Pontefract last time.
