Our Little Sister proved a disappointment here last time having run well for second at the track earlier. But she is still weighted to beat the older horses Competent and Wishing Well while hurdles winner Cosmic Tigress makes her debut on the Flat. Project Bluebook has been thereabouts in both starts so far and can also figure. He was ahead of IL SASSICAIA at Lingfield last month but Marco Botti's charge has subsequently performed well in a claimer and may come out best on this occasion with the longer trip expected to suit.
