CALL ME A STAR kept going all the way to the line when runner-up to the useful Utopie Des Bordes over a shorter trip here last month so there appears no reason why she won't stay the extra distance on the good ground. September Blaze was only a couple of lengths away in third, however, and should give another good account while Grimley Girl has shown some ability and may not have been suited by the heavy ground when favourite at Towcester on her second start. Mistral Reine was second in a Towcester bumper in December but has gone backwards since.
