Formscan  - After running with credit when fourth at Newbury, MARSALA makes plenty of appeal. The form of that contest has worked out nicely, with the winner placing in a Group 3 at the weekend, along with the second and third getting off the mark since, so Ralph Beckett's filly gets the vote to put her experience to best use. That said, she faces a host of well-bred newcomers, including Coaxed, who is out of a QEII winner, Friendly Force, a full-sister to Persian Force, and Miss Miniver, a half-sister to the globetrotting Facteur Cheval.
