      Verdict

      French import Fengate has not been disgraced since joining Roger Charlton. Sea Tide could improve further now she’s got her head in front, though she wasn’t overly impressive at Carlisle. SO SLEEK took a while to get her act together but she finally got her head in front at Lingfield in July and improved again to win at Salisbury. Though up another 4lb, Luca Cumani’s filly is worth sticking with. Bonnie Arlene is on a career-high mark now and none of the others have shown enough lately to suggest they can win a race like this.
