      Verdict

      Just the six runners for this Listed race but all six have claims of some sort. Sir Mark Prescott's Desertion was put in her place by Alasha in similar company at Bath last time, where Mamounia finished second, and is difficult to fancy on what she showed there, while Henry Cecil's Haydock winner Granadilla needs to improve again if she is to involved at the business end in this company. Newbury winner Hideaway Heroine was not disgraced in mid-division in the Coronation Stakes last time and has to be respected, as does Mythic, despite her misdemeanours at Bath last time. The TEAMtalk selection then has to be Miss Pinkerton. Geoff Wragg's filly has shown gradual improvement this term and lost little in defeat in Listed company at Deauville last time.
