ETERNAL BLUSH bids to remain unbeaten having landed a double over 6f. A late surge to score on the soft ground at Hamilton last time suggests this extra distance will suit David O’Meara’s promising filly as she goes handicapping for the first time. Gert Lush scored over today’s trip at Newmarket but is 7lb higher while Lola Showgirl finished runner-up over track and trip before going close over a mile at Hamilton. Spinacia is back up in distance and preferred to 5f winner Sweet Pursuit of the remainder.
