In depth
Verdict
Given her form and jockey booking, Autumn Leaves is the obvious one, but there is no guarantee on breeding that the step up in trip is going to suit, so the suggestion is ESCAPE THE CITY , who has looked as though she needs this extra furlong to be seen to best effect. The debutants look interesting without leaping off the page, so the other one for the frame could be Mirror Magic .
