Charlie Appleby could saddle a 1-2 in this finale with James Doyle preferring WORDCRAFT over Mistrusting. The former was beaten less than a length by the useful Nancy From Nairobi over a mile here last week and can get back to winning ways in first-time cheekpieces as her stablemate has been raised 3lb since her second over 6f at Leicester back in May. Saucy Minx and Bint Dandy look best of the remaining quartet though Lyfka ran well over this trip at Goodwood in June.
