In depth

Verdict

This revolves around RAINBOW SPRINGS as last year's third in the Group 1 Marcel Boussac was a major disappointment on her reappearance over a mile at Haydock where she failed to land the odds in an ordinary maiden. It could be she's dependent on soft ground to show her best, but it's equally plausible John Gosden's filly already needs a longer trip and she's given another chance here. Creme Anglaise and Parvana hold Ribblesdale entries and are genuine alternatives, but the newcomers Floral Beauty and Satwa Sunrise have no fancy engagements and the betting may give the best clue to their chances.
