A tricky affair to end proceedings as Alta Lilea posted her best effort so far to score at Newmarket last week but has a penalty to carry in this. She'd finished well behind Naru at Musselburgh earlier and the latter was well beaten at Ascot last month. Chesterfield ran well on his return from nearly a year off the track when third at Newmarket, though his pedigree gives mixed signals as regards his stamina over this longer trip. PREMIUM looks a safer bet to last home as she wasn't beaten that far in the Cheshire Oaks despite not threatening Banoffee and can end the day with a winner for Frankie Dettori.
