Formscan  - An eyecatching fifth here when keeping on in the Queen Mary last month before registering a Listed success at Sandown, STAYA is likely to relish the step up in trip and she can make it three wins from four outings. The biggest threat may emerge in the shape of Queen Mary runner-up Flowerhead, although Fitzella was a highly creditable fourth in the Albany and has to be given plenty of respect too.
