SOLFILIA has faced stiff tasks in Listed company recently. This is more her level and she finished just ahead of subsequent winner Wildomar over C&D in November. The latter beat the re-opposing Noble Silk at Lingfield but there's little between that pair as they renew rivalry while Moderator can be given a chance with an apprentice's 7lb claim helping his cause. Roberto Pegasus scored at Goodwood during the summer and is worth noting back on the Flat after a couple of starts over hurdles for Alan King.
