SPINATRIX holds what may prove to be a useful fitness advantage over her main rivals after finishing a fair second to Bahia Emerald at Doncaster at the back end of last month. She did take some time to find her stride on that occasion so should progress from the run and her end-of-season fourth in a decent Doncaster maiden last November reads very well in the context of this contest. Pantella is an obvious threat after two promising juvenile efforts and her yard continues in excellent form. She should go close. Lady Kildare cannot be discounted on her return to action after a consistent series of efforts in a six-race juvenile campaign.
