It was fast going when Atalanta's Boy won over track and trip in August with Indian Creak behind. Today’s ground is also a worry for Epsom winner Recon Mission but LOVELY BREEZE (NAP) won in testing ground over course and distance in July. Hugo Palmer’s filly has faced a couple of tougher tasks since and gets another chance back at this lower level. Spanish Star placed in the soft at Salisbury recently while both Restless Endeavour and Silent Flame have a shout on last month’s placed efforts at Newmarket but Beauty Choice is upped in class.
