Verdict
DIAMOND RAIN stepped up on her 3-y-o form when making a winning return in a strong listed event at Haydock last month and she looks the one to beat with further improvement on the cards. Morrophore confirmed herself firmly on the upgrade when a wide-margin winner at Ascot last month and rates the main threat ahead of Charlotte's Web, who's worth a shot at this level given her form in handicaps.
