Verdict

FLUTTERBEE produced late flourish to get her head in front on the line over 7f at Brighton. This extra distance should suit on that evidence and George Baker's filly can go in again. El Duque was placed again on his latest start but both earlier wins came in sellers while Elle Rebelle may have missed her chance having finished runner-up on a couple of occasions at Brighton last month off a lower mark. Bussa continues to slide down the handicap without yet showing any benefit.
