    In depth

    Verdict

    ENGAGE needs to dig a bit deeper to get her head back in front but her earlier second over a similar trip at Newbury gives her every chance. She finished well ahead of Daphne on that occasion and the latter has since gone close at Doncaster. Elysian Fields drops in class and has the beating of Saumur on collateral form with California while Graceland is usually thereabouts without being quite good enough. Renfrew Street was below par last time but is not out of this if the longer trip brings some improvement.
