In depth
Verdict
MIRROR CITY ran on nicely for third at Kempton after a slow start on her debut and will know more in this. The Godolphin filly may come out best as the others with experience have shown little so far. One of the newcomers could pose more of threat and the 100,000 euros filly Bell Heather is preferred of that group ahead of Miss Marina Bay, whose pedigree gives mixed signals as regards today's distance. Tranquil Time is another to note and preferred to Giveaway Glance.
