Notte Illuminata beat a subsequent winner when landing a maiden race at Newcastle last month and further improvement is expected now handicapping. But SUMMER ICON (NAP) has the form in the book having been placed in this grade the last twice now. She finished ahead of Bint Dandy when runner-up last time and was ahead of both Rebel Surge and Russian Radiance when third over track and trip before that. Rio's Cliffs won at Kempton last month but is upped a couple of grades along with the returning course and distance winner Make Music. Dutch Mist has won over 6f at this level but has yet to convince she stays today’s trip.
