In depth
Verdict
This looks a virtual match between Lynda Ramsden's Amused and Refa'ah from the Ed Dunlop stable. The former is the more exposed of the two but has been showing progressive form over shorter trips than this. There could be improvement to come over this longer distance. The latter has her first start of the campaign having finished a very creditable third to Millennium Dragon at Newmarket on her final outing as a juvenile. Rileys Rocket looks best of the rest.
