None of these set the pulse racing and a purely speculative vote goes to DIVISION BELLE. She was still thereabouts at the 7f marker over the mile trip at Goodwood last time before fading out of contention and is just preferred to Midnight Rambler. The latter steps up in distance today with Richard Hughes' presence suggesting she has a better chance than stablemate Gloss. China In My Hands has been treading water over 6f of late but Syrian Pearl is getting steadily closer. Tez and Choral Clan are others to consider in what looks something of a lottery.
