Placed at Group 3 and Listed level last year, Seattle Rock takes a big drop in class but won’t be much of a price and will offer little in the way of value. At A Pinch, representing last year’s winning yard, is also eased in grade while Rani Of Jhansi was just behind Monday’s impressive Windsor winner Sea Sylph when third on debut at Doncaster in the autumn. But we’ll take a chance on Ed Walker’s newcomer PEINTRE D’ETOILES as she’s by Sea The Stars out of a French middle-distance winner and cost 130,000gns. Lucky Bay, a full sister to useful miler Cape Peron, and Spice Store, who is a half-sister to three winners, are also worth a market check.
