In depth
Verdict
ITALIAN BEAUTY’s success at Haydock in July came on soft ground and Brian Ellison’s filly gets the vote on that basis. Timeless Art won on a fast surface at Ayr in June but has been rested since while there was little separating Echo Of Lightning and Character Onesie when they filled the places at Chester last time. Rainbow Rebel is upped a further 3lb after landing a hat-trick at the Cheshire track and Ayr winner Archie's Advice is preferred to Ellaal if the going remains slow.
