Mistrusting won this last year for Charlie Appleby having run over 7f in the Sceptre Stakes at Doncaster before that. MISE EN ROSE attempts the same feat today having gone very close at Doncaster last month and she has an edge at the weights and sports headgear for the first time. Both Gravity Flow and Kassia won Class 2 sprints on their latest starts at Salisbury and Pontefract respectively. The latter beat Stellarta last time with Futoon further behind while the former was ahead of Secret Hint. Pixeleen usually finds at least one too good but Spring Fling won at Haydock a fortnight ago and Symposium continued her good progress with a victory at Ascot and Ryan Moore takes over the reins for this.
