LIGHT MY FIRE beat others fillies when making a winning start at Ripon. But she did so with plenty in hand and the runner-up has subsequently boosted the form by winning. She’s taken to defy a penalty but Strawberry Jack looks a threat having shown ability at Newmarket on his debut and is preferred to Muthhila. Magic Groove and Archdeacon are likely improvers with Fognini and Jean Valjean newcomers to keep an eye on.
