Verdict
Light Music hasn't recaptured last season's form but is lightly raced and it isn't time to give up on her yet. However, OPAL TIARA (NAP) won a Listed contest at Carlisle in June and wasn't disgraced in a Group 3 at Goodwood subsequently when trapped out wide - she's taking a drop in class here and can take this for Mick Channon. Dawaa landed a Class 3 handicap over course and distance before a close third at this level at Newmarket. She's one of three Mark Johnston-trained entries with hat-trick seeking Hawatif also looking as though she'll give a good account on her favoured fast ground. Dutch Mist has only won at 6f and Jadaayil has only raced on ground with plenty of give while the lightly-raced Mustique steps up in class as does Alyaa, a Class 4 handicap winner at Epsom.
