Verdict

MOUNTAIN BREEZE and Fairy Godmother stand out on form and might fight this out, with the first-named marginally preferred given she's still open to significant improvement. Loads of others have potential but Simmering might be the pick of them after an eye-catching debut in a strong race.

  1. MOUNTAIN BREEZE (IRE)
  2. FAIRY GODMOTHER (IRE)
  3. SIMMERING
