First-time blinkers will hopefully see Miss Antropist get losses back, with Areweplayingout and Next Best others to consider. Miss Antropist was well fancied for an all fillies' seller at Thirsk seven-days ago, but had to be content with third place after having to be switched to make her effort two furlongs out. Ron Harris has now put the aids on her to sharpen her up, and they will hopefully work the oracle, with Tolley Dean taking back over in the saddle. There are plenty of dangers though, including Areweplayingout who also sports blinkers for the first time. The form of her Musselburgh third has not worked out too badly, with the runner-up Prigsnov Dancer only just beaten in a claimer recently. Of the rest, Next Best hails from a stable that has finally come off the cold list, and with cheekpieces applied, is another worth more than a passing glance. The market should tell us which of Dean Ivory's pair is the more fancied, but for the winner we return to Miss Antropist.
