Verdict
Lucymai won a decent handicap here before struggling from a high draw when five lengths behind CAROLINAE (NAP) in a Listed race over track and trip The latter has since been beaten in Group 3 company at Goodwood but this is more her level and she’ll go close if back to her best. The progressive Rock On Baileys steps up in trip having landed a double over 6f here and Dubai One is another attempting 7f for the first time. This is easier than Juliet Foxtrot’s recent tasks and better is expected from her but Orsera needs to improve and She Believes has not been at her best so far this year.
