Verdict
Miss Giler continues to frustrate and is worth taking on with CATSBURY. The latter faded in the closing stages over track and trip on her debut but Roger Varian's filly is expected to show plenty of improvement for that experience. China Girl is another likely to finish closer stepping up in trip and Godolphin newcomer Greatest Place is worth a second glance in the betting. Pure Line has had plenty of chances and is vulnerable to one of the less exposed types.
