Seta beat First City at Leicester around this time last year and can be forgiven her run behind Sahpresa in the Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket on her final start of 2010. But she may find ANNA SALAI too good on her reappearance. The Godolphin filly was second in last year's Irish 1000 Guineas and probably didn't give her true running when only seventh in the Coronation Stakes on her only subsequent start. Put away after that, connections' patience should be rewarded this year. Off Chance and Maid In Heaven both have the benefit of a recent run but may have been unlucky to come up against a couple of talented fillies at this stage of the season.
