Diamond Fire is running quite well but doesn't win very often while The Hamptons is still a maiden on turf. The latter was beaten almost four lengths by Lovestoned over the C&D last time but the winner is a massive 12lbs higher. Eurosmart Lady is better over further but DESERT BEN has dropped to a fair mark nowadays and his last two runs suggest he is ready to gain his fourth career success.
