Verdict
An official handicap rating of 85, marks out SUNRISE STAR in this company. She went very close at Yarmouth in August and will not have to be at her best to make a winning return in this modest company. Lunerian finished a couple of lengths ahead of Belletriste and Lead A Merry Dance when third at Salisbury and makes more appeal than Lingfield runner-up Twilight Angel. It's hard to see any of the remainder troubling the selection on what little they've shown so far.
