A very competitive fillies' handicap in which most arrive in decent form. Futoon has only won over 5f so far but only went down by a short-head over this trip at Newmarket last month. After a couple of victories at Bath this season, KASSIA is now 12lb higher than when scoring over track and trip a little under a year ago. But she ran well off her new mark at Goodwood in July and should be ready to go again after a short break. Show Stealer is still creeping up the weights but she's done little wrong this year and this is her trip. Midnight Malibu is also edging up the handicap and has struggled in higher grades in the past but Dutch Mist is not out of this and neither is a back-to-form Love Island.
