Connacht Girl is clear of the rest on handicap ratings but that was the case when well beaten in a maiden race at Ayr back in May. She has plenty to prove on her first start since and RAFFLE KING is a safer proposition. He’s been placed over the minimum trip on the all-weather the last twice now and is preferred to Blazed, who drops down to 5f for the first time today. Zilza is also dropping down in distance having gone close over 6f at Windsor last time while the remainder are hard to recommend on these terms.
