LITTLE CHINA races in a seller for the first time since scoring over course and distance in July. Willie Muir's filly should have too much speed for Ripon scorer Shamrocked over this trip. Cracking Choice has been placed in nine of his 18 starts but is still awaiting a first victory and likely to find at least one of the older horses too good here. Amis Reunis is generally campaigned over further but still looks the pick of the remainder.
