A poor end to the meeting, but we'll side with MISS CAMEO ahead of Dillenda and Monaco Mistress, but it's another race where there are more negatives than positives about many. The selection did well to finish third here last month when racing seven pounds out of the handicap and she followed that up with a decent second at Southwell over a mile. She may want a little further in time, but she's well drawn here, and there doesn't seem too much to beat. Monaco Mistress steps up in trip and has a first time visor applied in what's her fourth outing. She's yet to show too much, but connections will want a return on the 57 thousand pounds they paid for her. Dillenda may appreciate the firmer ground than she found when runner up last time out in the autumn, and she makes her handicap debut. Highly Acclaimed looks the pick of the two Ann Duffield entries, the other being Venetian Lady. If the scheduled 16 all go to post there could be some each-way value to be had, but our preference to win a lowly finale is Miss Cameo.
