Gleaming Spirit is strictly held by the seemingly exposed Bookiesindex Boy on running over the minimum trip here last month but is entitled to improve for the run and there may not be much to choose between the two today but more solid claims are held by Call Me Rosy, who gets the vote. The selection stepped up on her debut effort when chasing home Social Rhythm over course and distance last time and, with further improvement to come, she is preferred. Michael Bell's Kondakova has only had the one run so far and has the assistance of Jamie Spencer but she is unlikely to represent much in the way of value, while the likes of Goodbye Cash and Ken's Girl are becoming exposed. That is not the case with Call Me Rosy though and she gets the vote.
