Tamarillo Grove may challenge for the frame places as he should handle the trip but weakened over a mile last time out and there are concerns regarding the trip. Bagber may have needed a run out after a year long break and could be involved if coming on for it, but Oneofapear looks too high in the ratings to back. Veiled Applause is 5lb higher after winning at York but is worth consideration along with Casino Night who won over a mile here two starts ago. High Resolution and Royal Straight also participate in this race for Linda Perratt, with High Resolution harshly raised 6lb after finishing third over course and distance in August. DIAMOND DUCHESS is looking for a hat-trick and gets the vote. David Lanigan doesn't send her to Ayr from Newmarket without a chance and with the blinkers that have brought about improvement on again today, she can land the top honours.
