Verdict
Taffetta hasn't been disgraced since landing a Beverley maiden in the spring and should be thereabouts if handling the step up in trip. Liberal Angel is another for the short-list, though is just starting to look a little exposed. Misham represents a yard in good form and could go well if translating all-weather form back to the Turf but we'll take a chance that SHESNOTFORTURNING can find the necessary improvement to follow up her victory at Hamilton. She beat little at the Scottish track but clearly enjoys plenty of give in the ground and will have conditions to suit again here.
