Not the strongest of fields but Miss Whippy and Destiny's Dancer may have more to give and could challenge our selection, SPECIALISING. The pick has not shown particularly sparkling form lately but pedigree suggests this trip may be perfect and given the competition in this race, if the filly has developed at the Mick Channon yard after a recent run at Lingfield then she may have enough to get the win here. Destiny's Dancer kept on well at Thirsk last time and was perhaps unlucky not to get in to the places. There are reservations about a step up in trip today given that the filly's best performance has been over 7f. Miss Whippy only weakened within the final furlong at Beverley last time out and may offer a real alternative to our selection. If stamina has improved since that performance in May she could be in the mix come the finishing line. Although there is little to choose between the field, we side with Specialising to pick up the win today.
