      Verdict

      Expressiy performed to a decent level on Turf last year, winning over 7f here, and has been in good form on Dirt in Dubai this spring. She’s rated 11lb higher than stablemate Espadrille and is also the choice of William Buick but looks vulnerable against less-exposed rivals who are held in high regard. Anybody who saw LAH TI DAR (NAP) overcome inexperience to make a winning start at Newbury will want to be with John Gosden’s full sister to So Mi Dar. Her pedigree screams Oaks and this is a reliable stepping stone. Qazyna won over a mile here last month and is by Frankel but her dam has produced a couple of middle-distance winners so she should stay.
