In depth
Verdict
Reina Del Mar has won twice on the July Course at Newmarket this summer and There's The Door, who scored over 1m2f on soft going here in the spring, is also seeking a third victory of the campaign. CHERRY (NAP) certainly wasn’t winning out of turn at Goodwood and is clearly suited by soft going. An opening mark of 88 in handicaps looks manageable and she can get the better of Flower Of Dubai, who is less certain to appreciate the ground and stays further. Queen Emma will need to defy a further 6lb rise to complete the hat-trick and she looks held by Mistressofillusion on Nottingham running in June.
