A competitive contest on such a modest card with another chance going to GHADAAYER (NAP). Sir Michael Stoute’s filly won over today’s trip at Newmarket before upped in class for her last couple of outings. The progressive Harba came up short on her earlier attempt at a mile but landed a hat-trick over 7f subsequently while Bumptious is another with something to prove regarding the trip having won twice over 7f during the summer. Song Maker drops back in distance after scoring over 1m2f at Chester recently but this is much tougher than the race Andalusite won at Brighton last week and Roman Holiday is preferred.
