In depth

Verdict

Miss Blink has shown good progress since stepping up to 1m2f and has won her last two starts with a bit to spare. However, she's yet to race on soft ground and AMIR PASHA is preferred. The latter won off a higher mark at Haydock in August, handles soft going and looks set to strike after finishing runner-up on his latest start. Fast ground Musselburgh winner Jeu De Vivre will appreciate the return to this longer trip after her recent sixth at Ayr, but Silver Tigress and Nay Secret were both beaten out of sight over C&D three weeks ago and are hard to fancy.
