Don't Rightly Know took a big step forward when second at Uttoxeter, finishing ahead of the well-backed Eureka Creek with Glancing Glory unplaced. However, it would be no surprise to see Emma Lavelle’s mare reverse that form here now she’s gained some experience. MISS FAIRFAX (NAP) has come up against nice prospects in her two runs to date over timber. Her breeding suggests she’ll stay the longer trip today and she looks the one to beat. Khalina Star is bred for jumping so is worth a market check but Iconic Rock sports headgear on her debut under Rules.
