In depth
Verdict
Bellport has been showing good speed but finding little at the business so softer ground should aid her cause. MILLIE LOU has a similar profile but was only run out of it close home at Doncaster and can go one better. She holds Silver Kitten and Madame Pekan on that run but Thebeautifulgame, who finished sixth, ran green before staying on and should get much closer.
