Verdict

Dame Rose has been flying too high in recent starts, but this is more her level and she has solid each-way claims. Marginal preference, though, is for DAME DE COMPAGNIE, who probably has more to offer and looks to have been waiting for this better ground. Spice Girl, Presenting Pearl and Irish challenger Just Janice are also in the mix.
  1. Dame De Compagnie
