In depth

Verdict

Rising Star beat Gometra Ginty when winning at Musselburgh but the ground is a worry for both her and last month’s course and distance winner Turandot. It was heavy ground when Deep Sigh scored at Doncaster and FFION will welcome the soft surface. David Loughnane's filly was a fine second at Royal Ascot before a slightly disappointing run on quick ground back at Ascot last time and may be able to resume her progress back on a deeper surface. Voice Of Wisdom is a handicap debutante worthy of a second glance.
