Racing Post verdict
Third-partyWinged One ran here last time when stepping up in form, handled by a trainer with a strong course record, and our figures place her well clear of the field; first-time cheekpieces add another angle. City Queen arrives off a recent win and is progressing, while Ciara Pearl returns from a long absence with solid prior form and Hoseki is lightly raced and open to improvement. Winged One is our selection.
Racing Post pick: Winged One
