Forecasts

Spirited Style (13/8), Silent Love (4/1), Revoir (17/2), Miss Justice (10/1), Understudy (10/1), Favorite Memory (12/1), Little Dorrit (14/1), Karmology (18/1), Jane Temple (18/1), Chorus (22/1), Ambiente Amigo (33/1)

Verdict

A tightly-knit Group 3 on Timeform ratings with SPIRITED STYLE just about the most persuasive option. Fast-tracked to Group 1 company, she was looked after once her chance had gone in the German Oaks and down in class, this looks a good spot to bounce back. Favorite Memory and Little Dorrit contested a handicap last time but they don't have a lot to find representing excellent yards.
