HEAD MISTRESS quickened up well once in the clear to overhaul the long-time leader late on at Down Royal on her debut 3 weeks ago and can take this step up in grade in her stride and win again. Strapped is well respected back in calmer waters following a good run in the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes last week, while Loveday is another solid contender.
