Formscan  - The unbeaten MUSICAL TIMES is difficult to oppose. Charlie Appleby's dual novice winner returned the impressive winner of the Group 2 May Hill Stakes when upped to a mile at Doncaster last month and the daughter of Lope De Vega could prove a cut above the opposition. Rogue Passion was a Group 2 winner at Longchamp and the runner-up, Amusingly, has since boosted the form. She is the main danger, with the Listed winner Forbidden Fire preferred to Lex Victoria and Haven of the rest.
