Verdict

Regal Realm has obvious claims on a literal translation of form but hasn't been seen since springing a 25-1 shock on debut in May when inching out Gamilati. The latter went on to land the Group 2 Cherry Hinton Stakes from RUSSELLIANA. However, Sir Michael Stoute's filly, previously an impressive Leicester winner, looks very much on the upgrade and her guaranteed fitness swings us in her favour. If there is to be a strong threat to the front two, both the offspring of Medicean, Angels Will Fall looks the one. She was really impressive in landing an ordinary Windsor maiden back in early May and hasn't seen the track subsequently but Barry Hills clearly thinks enough of his Acclamation filly to send her straight into Group company.
