GYPSY WHISPER put some moderate runs to one side when an excellent second here just over a fortnight ago when a close second in a decent fillies' handicap. She's up 2lb in the weights but this does not rate as strong a race and a similar effort would see her go close despite topweight. The extra furlong is well within her compass. Without Delay came back to form with a cosy Musselburgh victory last time, with the yard suggesting more prominent riding tactics generated the improved showing. She should certainly be in the mix here off just a 3lb higher mark, especially as she appeared to benefit from the step-up to a mile. Clement Danes needs checking in the market and the consistent Kiritimati Island is hard to assess as all his form has been shown on an artificial surface.
