An intriguing maiden to round off the card, with a chance taken on the most interesting runner in the contest MIA MARIA. The selection has obviously not been straightforward to train with just the one career run to her name in September 2018. However, she finished third behind this year's Epsom Oaks runner-up Pink Dogwood on that occasion, and provided most of that ability remains, she can begin to make up for lost time at the chief expense of Bellakris who posted a career best last time when just denied by a well-fancied Ballydoyle inmate. Next best is likely to be Royal Highness who ran an eye-catching race when staying on over 7f to snatch second first time out.
