ELLIES IMAGE arrives in fine form and is worth sticking with. She was winning for the second time in her last three starts when scoring a shade cosily at Chepstow a fortnight ago and is taken to defy a 6lb rise. Eastern Gift is slipping down the weights but should have done better here last time and Gazboolou makes more appeal having won over C&D on his penultimate start with Jonnie Skull behind. Piccolo Express is getting closer and should figure again, but Meydan Style has struggled since winning here in June.
