James Tate looks to have found a good opportunity for SOLAR HEIGHTS. She’s clear at the weights having gone close in a decent handicap at Wolverhampton last time and should confirm running with third-placed Geizy Teizy and the latter’s stablemate Exceed Loose on today’s better terms. Starlight Romance has been in good form in handicaps but is another with plenty to find with the selection while Ruby Gates has little chance on these terms having only won a seller at Wolverhampton recently.
