Irish filly Miss Amulet beat Sacred and Umm Kulthum to win the Lowther at York last month and given the latter pair already have verdicts over the likes of Alcohol Free, Happy Romance and Illykato that form looks pretty solid. Kevin Condon’s grey looks sure to go close while compatriot Aloha Star is not out of this either having passed the post second in the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh last time only to be demoted to third. Zoetic looks up against it at this level but there’s more to come from DANDALLA. Karl Burke’s filly added a Group 2 victory on the July course here last time to her earlier victory in the Albany at Ascot and is taken to remain unbeaten.
