David Simcock’s filly ended last season with a double at Yarmouth and can race off the same mark if an apprentice’s allowance is taken into account. There is little between Star Of Lombardy and Admiral's Sunset on their respective defeats at the hands of Vuela but Rosie Royale remains 5lb higher than when landing a double over track and trip last year.
