La Colline is difficult to oppose and Glamaraazi and Howards Princess are all but makeweight dangers. Willie Haggas' charge won very easily off this mark last week and as that success came in an apprentices' race, she is unpenalised for the victory and gets another chance off the same mark. The bookmakers will have also seen this so punters should not expect big prices. Glamaraazzi could be open to improvement on a third to Guadaloup over course-and-distance. That rival is set to take his chance at a banded meeting at Wolverhampton so it is hard to enthuse. Howards Princess has had no luck with the draw of late and she is arguably much better than the selling race that she scored in a couple of weeks ago. Look Of Eagles ran off marks in the mid-60's and should be staying on at the death. Bold Love is exposed at modest levels while Tipsy Lillie is off a basement mark and has failed to trouble the judge in six all-weather starts. Palais Polaire is watched in the market. Its very difficult to get away from La Colline here and we seek not to.
