Verdict
Al Messila has a shout back in this lower grade on an earlier second at Newmarket but Solfeggio was still beaten a long way when third over track and trip last month. Remembering You went close again at Windsor having won at Wetherby before that but HEAVENLY BLISS (NAP) makes most appeal. Sir Michael Stoute’s filly should be sharper for a comeback run at Doncaster and is expected to improve further now handicapping for the first time. Lady Scatterley is another making her handicap debut and may prove best of the rest.
