Verdict
A 7lb rise proved beyond Sayem at Goodwood when attempting to land a treble. Summer Chorus went close at Chelmsford recently with Peak Princess behind and the latter had earlier finished well ahead of Parlance when scoring at Kempton. FIRST DANCE also won at Kempton last month when three lengths clear of the rest in a maiden. There should be more to come from James Tate’s filly now handicapping and she gets the nod. Yarmouth winner Stellar Surprise drops back down in class having faced a couple of tough tasks but Rebel Surge looks high enough in the weights.
