Verdict
Entente was very green on debut at Lingfield but shaped with some promise. Andrew Balding has trained the winner of this twice in recent years and Berkshire Beauty is improving with experience based on her fifth at Sandown. But so is SISTER OF MERCY and her third to Malabar at Ascot is easily the best form on offer in this. Perceived will need further than this but is possibly the most interesting of the newcomers.
