In depth
Verdict
Massarra was a smart juvenile and has trained on judged on her efforts this term notably a fine third behind Ashdown Express in a Listed event at Newbury last month. Her best form has been on a quicker surface but her undoubted class should gain the day and she is handed a confident TEAMtalk vote against inferior rivals. Affaire Royale has held her form well in similar company but has something to find with the selection on these terms while To The Woods has been struggling to recapture last year's form but still looks best of the remainder.
