        Verdict

        Rumbalara and Silver Highlight have similar claims here and the first named just gets the verdict, Rightful Ruler should also be in the shake up. John Gosden's filly wasn't beaten far on her Goodwood debut, and improved on that effort to chase home Atlantic Story at Epsom. With more improvement expected she will be very difficult to beat here. Silver Highlight started her campaign in a hot Newbury maiden won by Windscreamer and followed that effort with a gallant second behind Baradore at Yarmouth. Once again there should be more to come and she looks the main threat to the selection. Barry Hills has his stable firing at present so Rightful Ruler, a son of American sire Mountjoy, should be watched closely in the betting market. Spill A Little is from a top yard and should improve for his debut run, but Rumbalara has already proven her worth and she gets the vote.
