O'CONNOR'S GIRL made her debut over 7f here last month which proved too short, as her pedigree suggested it would. She was staying on nicely once the penny dropped and with that under her belt can land the spoils. Rivers Run made her belated debut over 1m4f at Wolverhampton a month ago where she was in the lead at this trip before fading close home so she will certainly be suited by today's distance. Stars At Night will be suited by stepping up as she's been looking a bit one paced in both starts over a mile and though Hope You Dance has only looked moderate she's well connected and should have some improvement in her.
