Miss Crick has placed against older horses the last twice but is conceding plenty of weight to the three-year-olds in this including Lady Cosette. Harry Dunlop steps his new charge up in trip after a placed effort over 7f here but the less-exposed DALAKINA is preferred despite the unfavourable terms. The latter’s half-sister won over today’s distance and improvement is expected from Roger Varian’s filly on her reappearance. Bumper winner Ripplet should also finish closer but is another older horse giving plenty of weight away along with The Jean Genie.
