EMMAS JOY only won by a head at Southwell in November but left that form behind when only beaten half-a-length in a Listed race at Huntingdon the following month. The third that day, Silver Forever, won at Ascot last Saturday so the form has a solid look about it. Whitehotchillifili also made a winning start under Rules at Southwell and the second in that race ran well over hurdles earlier this week. Fourshoes found only one too good when favourite at Wetherby but Wayne Hutchinson prefers stablemate and newcomer Burren Walk, who is closely related to a host of winners over jumps and on the Flat. The Presenting filly Notawordofalie also has a nice pedigree and Aurello is a likely improver. Former pointer Yeavering Belle looks the pick of the remainder.
