        Verdict

        Progressive fillies clash but ROCOCO revealed dramatic improvement for the Gosden team latest. Having been beaten in an ordinary Beverley maiden, she stepped up to 1m4f for the first time in a Newmarket handicap and routed her field. She should be able to enhance her paddocks value further with more progress to come after a mere four starts. Saving Grace has revealed a tenacious attitude to land two of her last three starts and wasn't beaten far by an improver on the other outing. She should be competitive despite the rise in class. Mistress Quickly and Lady Bergamot are not too badly handicapped against the younger fillies and should represent their age group with conviction.
