Frankie Dettori has just the one ride on today's card and it should prove a successful one with MISS GILER fancied to open her account. She was only beaten a short-head over 1m2f here last month and breeding suggests she will relish the longer trip. High Valley should also last home having finished a modest fifth over shorter at Wolverhampton last time but Special Code will need to improve on his form to date to figure. The newcomer Vive Ma Fille is a stoutly-bred filly and sister to a Group 3 winner in Germany and should be noted given her yard has won three of the six previous renewals.
