A decent staying fillies handicap in which a number of the runners are likeable enough sorts. Star of Lombardy is tough and battled gamely against the progressive Vuela at Doncaster recently. Vuela was returning from an absence at Doncaster after comfortably seeing off Admiral's Sunset at Newcastle in November. The Hughie Morrison trained filly is a sizeable unit and should win a race sooner or later against her own sex, but the preference here is for course specialist ROSIE ROYALE. She ran a sound race behind Moayadd at Chepstow earlier this month, and that should have put her spot on for this contest, which was presumably the target.
- Rosie Royale
- Star Of Lombardy
- Admiral's Sunset
