Fillameena can make the most of the weight that she receives from Ellina, with Aristi and Simon's Seat others worth a second look. The final race on the card can go to Fillameena who appears to be going the right way of late. Stuart Williams's five-year-old was beaten a length-and-a-quarter by Ellina when the pair met here recently, but now re-opposes on seven pound better terms. That effort 11 days ago confirmed that the mare does stay, and having done most of her racing in Spain, she can now open her account on these shores. Ellina looks held then, but should still be good enough to be in the shake-up now that she is fully over the virus that affected her at the start of the year. Aristi was third at Warwick last time and can be involved, while Simon's Seat had seconditis earlier in the campaign but deserves to be found a small contest. On this occasion though he is likely to be outstayed by Fillameena.
