In depth
Verdict
Fatima's Gift was a little disappointing in a three-runner race at Yarmouth last time having gone close at Newbury previously. She's gone up a couple of pounds since and we'd rather take a chance on MYSTICAL MOMENT staying this longer trip as she wasn't stopping when second over a mile at Chepstow last time. Singersongwriter hasn't run since disappointing when favourite over 7f at Kempton in May but Rosaceous should find this easier than the Listed race she contested last month. Play Street looks the pick of the older fillies but has never won off a mark this high.
