Verdict
The frustrating Fine View found one too good yet again back in maiden company at Newmarket last time. She shares the same handicap rating as NOBLEST, who has been given a break since failing to land the odds at Chepstow in June and is taken to make a winning return. Real Smart was another losing favourite when third on her latest outing though she finished ahead of both Chica Rapida and District Twelve while Hawkin failed to show her true running when well beaten in a maiden race at Thirsk last time.
