DESERT TREASURE was unbeaten as a juvenile and shaped as if badly needing her York reappearance 36 days ago following a 10-month absence so she's well worth another chance to show her true ability now fitter. Tiva has improved with each run back from a layoff and was unlucky at Musselburgh last time when short of room, while Sugar Hill Babe won readily over C&D 20 days ago.

VerdictNot disgraced when probably slightly out of depth at listed level on last 3 starts, shaping a bit better than the result on latest outing. Makes belated handicap debut from what could be a workable mark.- 2. Sugar Hill BabeJ: Ross CoakleyT: Lisa WilliamsonF: 342069-21

VerdictNotched a second C&D success when winning a 7-runner handicap 20 days ago, going with zest throughout. 6 lb higher mark may not prove beyond her if getting into the same rhythm again.

VerdictImproved to win 4-runner maiden at Windsor in May, proving willing. She's in good hands and may have more to come but she has a drop back in trip to contend with here.- 3. TivaJ: Jack DoughtyT: David O'MearaF: 91108-525

VerdictProved as good as ever this year when second of 6 at Hamilton Park in May and wasn't seen to best effect when fifth of 7 at Musselburgh 15 days ago, short of room over 2f out and keeping on when snatched up close home. Holds place claims once more.

VerdictDown field all 4 starts this year but not seen to best effect on several occasions. Mark is slipping and merits some respect down slightly in grade and back against her own sex.

VerdictUnbeaten in 2 starts as a 2-y-o but had missed 10 months when 11th of 17 in a handicap at York in May and understandably shaped as if needing the run. Has a smart pedigree and she looks well worth another chance for top yard.
