Race preview
Charlie Appleby launches a two-pronged assault with Veil Of Shadows and SAPPHIRE SEAS, and the latter is preferred. The daughter of Frankel thumped a subsequent Listed winner and Group-placed rival in a Kempton novice 155 days ago, so an opening mark of 94 doesn't look beyond a filly who has the potential to become Pattern class. The unbeaten Royal Mila, who struck at Windsor last time, looks a big danger to the selection, while Zarga should not be underestimated either.
