HOPE RISING (1) arrives in sparkling form since reverting back to the flat having won her last three starts on turf. Remains unexposed but unplaced both outings on the all-weather. Hard to oppose. LA PEREGRINA (3) finally got off the mark at Thirsk beginning of August. Minimal racing tackling this surface and is considered. ST HILDA (5) is yet to win in any of her five attempts however is starting to get the hang of things and this isn't the deepest contest. Should be thereabouts. Worth taking seriously. CELESTARAK (4) ran poorly at Epsom Down last time. Interesting if in the same condition as his win at Goodwood.

Recent form sound. At the latest run favourite; scored a big 24 len win at Chepstow on August 18 over 2400m defeating Sneaky Blinder carrying 61kg at $1.10. The race before that favourite; won by 19 len at Nottingham on August 11 over 3200m defeating Joanna Hiffernan with 62.5kg at $1.30. Only has a small field to contend with and looks hard to beat.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

At the latest run held ground to the line 3rd of 12 at Kempton Park All Weather on August 19 over 2400m, 2.75 len behind Liberate with 55kg at $5.50. The run before that 6th of 8 at Sandown Park on July 4 over 2000m, 7 len behind Tambora with 58kg at $11. Likely to hold the good form and play a major role again.
