Hollaback Girl sets the standard off a mark of 57 but it’s not a high one and she was still five lengths behind the winner when runner-up over 5f here with Quaint back in third. ALEX GRACIE never threatened when placed over track and trip on last month’s debut but, with improvement expected in a weak-looking contest, Scott Dixon’s filly gets a speculative vote. Dark Regard failed to show any progress at Leicester back in July though is easier while Secret Diary, Love Not Money and stablemate Gmasha looking other likely improvers if taking to the surface.
