This looks a difficult start for punters but we'll take our cue from the past two years, which have seen two smart fillies carry 9st7lb to victory. GLITTER GIRL is entered in the Rockfel Stakes later this month and the Thirsk and Catterick winner may be improving quickly enough to defy top weight, though this will be her first run on ground with some give. Ripon scorer Arwa has more scope than most while both Mark Johnston and John Quinn are double-handed. La Casa Tarifa looks the former's best hope, though was well beaten by Seduce Me at Ripon in July, while the latter has booked Silvestre De Sousa for the potentially well-treated Bloomin Lovely. Thirsk winner Norwegian Highness should appreciate the step up in trip and Rosabelle was second in this grade at Chester last month.
