Smart Illusion has been raised 5lb after opening his account with a victory over today’s trip at Musselburgh. He looks more progressive than Camachess, placed on her last three starts now, while Riverwing was placed at Brighton on her latest start and could also go well. But Mark Johnston sent out last year’s winner and STELLAR COMET has every chance now handicapping for the first time having shown enough in maiden company to suggest she can win at this level. Anandita also has form in maidens but disappointed on her handicap debut.
