Verdict

In this fillies' handicap, we will opt for New Order ahead of Enrapture and Sabrina Brown. The selection showed that she had clearly derived a great deal of benefit from her debut run when scoring at Haydock last time. Admittedly, it is hard to quantify the value of that form but, a rating of 71 does not seem too excessive and she looks set to go well again. Surreptitious followed up his Newmarket debut win with a fair run at the same venue, although she did hang left under pressure. She is entitled to respect but the handicapper seems to have been a little harsh on Enford Princess, although she does act on soft, and Saristar has disappointed twice since winning over six furlongs on good to soft at Newmarket in April. Much as Enrapture has probably been rated fairly for her Newbury win, this daughter of Lear Fan should keep on improving and she has proven that she acts on good to soft. Here To Me has been beaten twice from today's mark since scrambling home at Warwick in July, while Sabrina Brown has been raised eight pounds for winning a fairly uncompetitive handicap at Chepstow. That said, her rider takes off five of those and she does act when there is give in the going. Scarlett Rose is at least improving now and could have better to come but, for the winner, we are prepared to side with New Order.
