Verdict
SUNRISE STAR started at short odds at Bath last time and duly obliged. That should done her confidence the world of good and she can follow up here at the main expense of progressive Chester scorer Telmeyd. Dutch Breeze may not have beaten much here last time but is usually thereabouts and he makes more appeal than the disappointing Lincoln and Alisios. Course and distance winner Galvanize may have found 7f too far last time at Sandown but may need to drop a few pounds before recapturing the winning thread.
