Race preview
DANCE DESIRE, who cost 240,000 gns as a yearling, is an intriguing filly for John and Thady Gosden to introduce at this time of year. Her dam is a half-sister to Maxi Boy, who was placed in the Group 2 Superlative Stakes as a juvenile and gives her strong appeal on pedigree. Warda Jamila, a half-sister to Lonsdale Cup winner Coltrane, is feared but needs a step forward from her debut, so well-bred newcomers Beatrice Shilling and Blue Akoya might be bigger threats to the selection.
