A good race to bow out on and ROSEHILL ARTIST should appreciate a return to a sounder surface. Charlie Hills' filly beat a useful sort here in June and she can be forgiven a modest run at Newmarket as conditions were hardly conducive to producing any performances of note. Tearless got the better of Almashooqa when they met at Goodwood and the handicapper's interpretation of that maiden sees the pair weighted to finish close. Zaaemah ran no sort of race at Doncaster on soft going though the dogs were certainly barking ahead of her successful debut at Nottingham. Running Deer is significantly older than any of her rivals and the decision to race on has been justified with victories at Goodwood and Chester. That said, those successes obtained on going that will be much slower than that what she will experience tonight.
