SHINE AND BURN (4) pushed forward from a wide draw last time and found a forward position then knocked up in the straight to finish seventh over 6f at this track. Bold showing expected with the blinkers added. CHAMPAGNE CATHAY (3) finished fifth last start over 5½f at this track after racing on the pace for much of the way. Likely to measure up. SHOOT TO FAME (2) resumes from a lay-off of four-and-a-half months. Could only manage to finish fifth at the latest run over 7f at this track. Ran fourth in a recent trial at Lark Hill. Nicely placed and can get off the mark. SHEZASEER (7) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of David Harrison. By Nostradamus from Patience Phillips. Worth watching for a betting push.
