Great to see some quality mares in action here and this is a tough race to call, with the nod just going to LA VATICANE. David Pipe's eight-year-old really impressed giving away weight last time, acts on anything underfoot and stays three miles, so she has plenty of options depending on how this race is run. Tagrita will be a tough nut to crack, while The Organist may be able to continue her development and cannot be ruled out. Desert Queen looks to be a classy contender, though giving 10lb to some of these may just prove to be beyond her.
1. La Vaticane
2. Tagrita
3. The Organist
