She's in form, which counts a lot for fillies, so Extremely Rare gets the call ahead of possibly Portmeirion, Fair Compton, Cut Ridge, Coconut Squeak, Pine Bay and Minimum Bid. Extremely Rare gained a deserved success at Windsor last time and, even from a five-pounds higher mark, can go well. Turning to the others and Miss Judgement's best Turf form gives her claims, and she has won over course and distance, while Cut Ridge is competitively weighted. Portmeirion was not beaten far on her latest course and distance run from a revised mark and holds claims. Fair Compton is on a winning mark, while Mimic is on a winning mark from last August. Despite a number of placed efforts, Dolce Piccata has only one win to her name, while Pine Bay keeps knocking at the door from today's mark and one day it will open, and Coconut Squeak remains competitive from her current mark and rarely runs a bad race. Finally, raised four pounds for a Newbury win, Minimum Bid can also be considered. However, we will stick with Exremely Rare.
