Two wins from 6 runs this year. 9/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifth of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good) 13 days ago, finding test too much. Now tried in blinkers and returning to this trip will help.

Latest win at Goodwood in May. 5/6, 2¼ lengths third of 5 to Mercury Day in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 68 days ago. Drop back to 7f may not be an issue but will need to raise her game if she's to take this.

Second of 4 in handicap at Haydock (6f, firm, 8/1) 27 days ago, no match for winner. Down another 2 lb but she's likely to find one or two of these too good nonetheless.

14/1, last of 6 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 33 days ago. That run may have been needed following a 6-month break but she's opposable all the same.

Course winner. Latest win here in July. Fifth of 7 in handicap (9/4) at Lingfield (9f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Back down in trip and she has to enter calculations now eased in class.

Two wins from 4 runs this year. 15/2, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (9f, good to firm) 23 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Drop back in trip may not be a bad thing but she's probably a shade too high in the weights for now.

Latest win at Lingfield in May. Third of 4 in handicap (10/3) at Haydock (6f, firm) 27 days ago. Just behind the runner-up Lexington Belle and good chance that she'll reverse the placings with that rival now upped to 7f.
Timeform Verdict 
Preference is for ROSA APPLAUSE, who remains unexposed on turf and she shaped as though this stiffer test would be right up her street when third at Haydock last month. Circe, on the other hand, is dropping back in trip and will be a big threat granted a strong pace to aim at. So Logical looks the pick of the Gosden-trained duo and she is also accorded respect.
Betting Forecast
15/2 So Logical, 4/1 Queen's Reign, 10/1 Lexington Belle (Ire), 28/1 Eminny (Ire), 10/3 Circe (Ire), 8/1 Mercury Day (Ire), 9/2 Rosa Applause (Ire)
