The day’s feature has also attracted the afternoon’s biggest field. A La Voile, unbeaten this year, Waliyak and Virgin Snow take the step up from handicap company and are worth considering with the latter appearing to have the beating of Festive Star on collateral form. Domino Darling may still have untapped potential, despite a disappointing performance at Newmarket, and the four-year-old Brassica has been lightly raced. John Gosden won this last year and has two runners. Tiempo Vuela made the pace in the Oaks when last seen but MAJESTIC NOOR (NAP) is more interesting with Hollie Doyle in the saddle. She is still heading in the right direction and was only a length-and-a-half behind Sunday’s Longchamp winner Queen Of Daenerys, fourth in the Oaks, at the French track in July.
