Verdict

ETERNALLY (NAP) improves with every start and lowers her aim after placing in Listed company and then a Class 2 handicap at Newmarket last month. There should be more to come from John Gosden’s filly and she can confirm latest running with Rebel Surge. Bint Dandy just missed out at Chelmsford last week and can race off a lower mark here as she has yet to score on Turf in nine attempts while Gratzie drops in class but remains 6lb higher than when winning at Bath in June. Subtle Knife is upped a grade off a 4lb higher mark after winning at Leicester while Lyfka and Haley Bop finished almost upsides when down the field at Goodwood last time.
