RACING POST VERDICT

This can go to VISCOUNTESS NELSON who already has a win under her belt and should improve further. Second choice is Frenati.

Racing Post Pick
Viscountess Nelson
Our Expert Tip

With the handicap route looking a big possibility for plenty in this field, the opener is a tough race to work out. The each-way selection goes to the Ben Pauling-trained Elated, who has run all four starts over the minimum trip. The step up in distance looks a positive, especially considering the pedigree suggests he should improve over much further, potentially around 3 miles.
Elated is definitely one for the notebook when he moves into handicaps after today\'s race

The Oaks was only a few weeks ago, but Legacy Link ran a very solid second there.

If this race hasn’t come too quickly, she will be extremely tough to beat. It’s hard to make a strong case against her here, and she gets a confident win selection in Race 3.
