Company Minx is only a plater but ran well on good to soft over course and distance in June when 3lb higher in the weights. PRISCILLA’S WISH also has form on the surface and has been in brilliant form over 7f here recently. She may well win again, despite a further 3lb rise. Gnat Alley looks a danger eased in grade, however, and the going will suit Jamie Spencer’s mount Atomise. Rabat is back on an upward curve with Breach also worth a second look.
