In depth
Verdict
Island Express, Jermatt and Cincinnati Kit have all shown some ability but you'd expect one or two of the three-year-olds in this to be more progressive. First Serve made the frame for the first time at Wolverhampton and had Lady Farah behind. But that was over 6f and we prefer the claims of Dangerous Age and MAGIC ICE. The former wasn't beaten far on her debut over track and trip but has the worst of the draw today so the vote goes to John Berry's filly, who was still a little green when a beaten favourite at Wolverhampton last month but should be more the finished article now.
