A competitive heat in which STAR PROMISE can make the most of the weight he receives from his rivals. David Barron has his horses in good form and this Mujahid filly ran well here when last seen. She was beaten a length by Bubbly Bellini but has a 4lb pull in the weights and over a trip that should suit she is preferred. Anjomarba has been holding her form well but she is another who has work to do with Bubbly Bellini, a comment that also applies to the consistent Tamarind Hill. Bubbly Bellini should be happier now dropped back in trip and it would be no surprise to see her bounce back, despite a busy period of late. Olympic Ceremony needs a market check as he drops in class for the first time, Silver Linnet has something to prove on this surface, whilst Clear Ice runs this track extremely well and he has a generally pretty progressive profile. A good quality claimer, where Star Promise is selected.
