In depth

Verdict

The top and bottom in the weights catch the eye here. Sir Michael Stoute's Priolo filly Shersha has scope for improvement but has to concede weight to the field. This includes the lightly-raced bottomweight, Gerard Butler representative Ros The Boss. She has been raised 13lbs for her Brighton win but that still leaves her on a mark of only 59. She comes here fresh, should still be improving and gets the TEAMtalk vote. The battle-hardened pair Stroke of Six and Bon Marche are entitled to run well while John Hills lightly-raced Rhythm Of Life, who had a mid-season break, has to be considered. Princess Miletrian cost a lot of money as a yearling but failed to live up to her price tag when with Mick Channon.
