THE SYDNEY ARMS is no 'good thing' but she can improve for this longer trip and see off Whisper Louise. The filly has top-weight to carry but she deserves her mark of 85 after wins here and at Newbury. She was never a factor in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot but her course experience should see her back in the winners' enclosure. Scarlet Rocks has been kept busy but will appreciate the ease in class, Whisper Louise was impressive when winning over course and distance and she seems to be learning with each start, whilst Two Feet Of Snow looks too high in the handicap. Of more interest is Ishbelle after a convincing win at Ripon where she wasn't stopping at the line, and Whoateallthepius who was bought out of the Hannon yard for £25,200 and ran her best race to date when a runner-up to Eucharist at Kempton last month.
