Galician was in fine form during the summer, rattling up three victories, but has struggled of late and remains 4lb higher than her latest win. Maid A Million has been running well over shorter trips on fast ground but usually finds at least one too good. DEGLET NOOR is less exposed and finished ahead of Narmin when third in heavy going at Sandown last month. Paul Hanagan prefers her to the latter and Roger Varian's filly is taken to reverse running with runner-up Cosseted on better terms. Rainbow Beauty was placed in soft ground last time but this is much tougher.
