Verdict

MYSTIC SMILE (11) is the one to beat after resuming with a sound second to Anaconda Jones in a NMW1Y at Belmont, and she is better placed with weight relief back to Mdn grade. Her earlier third behind Swift Ruler in Open company at Belmont also reads well for this, so the profile has more substance than most. MORE DARLING (14) improved into fourth behind Profit Motive at Belmont Park and is race fit third-up. Needs luck from the barrier, but her form reads well and a win wouldn't surprise. MORIKAWA (5) was pipped at Northam as a well-supported favourite and had earlier held his ground in the Max Simmonds at this track. Drawn well again and can feature in the finish. BRAVE MOVE (4) resumes off a trial after finishing third in Saturday company at Belmont Park over 7f. Leading chance on resumption. BUSTER'S BABE (6) can build on the strong fresh effort.
