      Verdict

      This is tougher than the race Wee Jean won at Chester a week ago and Alexandrakollontai is also up in class after scoring over 6f at Carlisle. Assault On Rome and Bimbo have something to prove in this grade though the latter finished ahead of Taqneyya when sixth here earlier in the month. Gleaming Girl returns to the Turf off what looks a high enough mark so RISEN SUN gets another chance. The Godolphin filly failed to figure in the Sandringham at Ascot last time but ran well behind Queen Catrine, rated 100, in a conditions event at Leicester before that and can go close with a similar effort.
