Cabaletta is fitted with headgear today having failed to figure on her reappearance. She beat La Lune when winning a Listed race last season and the latter returned to action with a win at Nottingham last month. Both of the above have been well beaten in soft going but ORIENTAL MYSTIQUE acts on the ground and went close in a Group 2 at Longchamp last summer. Beaten only a length by Alpinista, rated 113, at Goodwood on her comeback, David Simcock’s filly may be the one to side with in this. The remainder all step up in class with something to find at the weights.
