Verdict

In a very tricky contest Monashee Rose, I'm Aimee and Arbors Little Girl are the three against the field, with last named just having the edge. Rod Millman's filly who, having been backed down from 20-1 to 8-1, came from a seemingly impossible position two furlongs out to nail today's rival Majestical in the final stride in a five furlong seller here. She has had problems with the stalls and after refusing to go in on her intended debut, had been through a test following some extensive coaching. There should be plenty more to come from this daughter of Paris House who looks on a decent mark. Monashee Rose is progressing nicely and although only just getting up at Musselburgh last time, could still be ahead of the handicapper. I'm Aimee is more exposed than most, but has shown enough in similar contests to warrant respect here. So a very tricky contest but Arbors Little Girl could be much better than selling class and she is given the nod.
