Verdict
Only a weight range of 10lb in a tight nursery in which a cogent case can be argued for all. Atmospheric and Mitty's Smile are interesting on their respective nursery debuts while Insania will find this easier than the competitive Goodwood handicap she was last seen in and Knightcap found her form with a vengeance recently in a Catterick nursery after looking exposed after seven unsuccessful runs. The overall profile of SHAMMAH is not bombproof by any means but this is definitely her trip and she went really well just six days ago when run down late by Bushtucker Trial at Newbury over this trip - a repeat performance would see her go close.
