Queen Aminatu returned a beaten favourite at Haydock and this is tougher while the progressive Adaay In Asia steps up in distance having won the Shergar Cup Sprint at Ascot. Illustrating has yet to match last year’s best form and Truely Aclaimed failed to cope with another rise in the weights at Newmarket while Bellosa has undergone wind surgery since last in action back in April. But MOBADRA was having her first outing of the year when scoring a Chelmsford last month and given there should be plenty more to come from Roger Varian’s filly, she gets the vote to defy a 4lb rise.
