Verdict

DARN HOT DAME failed to fire at Goodwood last time but continues to look well treated on the form she showed when winning here prior to that and can bounce back in first-time cheekpieces. Impossible Mission may benefit from the return to 1¼m and is taken to fill the forecast spot.

5	The form of her 11.5f course win in May has been boosted. Below that level when a well-held fourth at Goodwood (1½m, good to firm) 4 weeks later but worth another chance in first-time cheekpieces with a good claimer taking a handy 5 lb off. 1st Pick 5 Darn Hot Dame Jockey: Ashley Lewis Trainer: Tom Ward J: Ashley Lewis T: Tom Ward	100	-	-	-	19%	9/2

4	Won on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f) off 1 lb higher last November. Mixed record since but latest third of 5 at this course (11.4f, good to firm) was creditable. This return to a slightly shorter trip looks ideal. 2nd Pick 4 Impossible Mission Jockey: Ray Dawson Trainer: John Butler J: Ray Dawson T: John Butler	99	-	-	-	25%	3/1

3	Has done well in handicaps, winning first 3 (all-weather). Creditable efforts in defeat twice since, including third on turf latest, but it seems the assessor has caught up. 3rd Pick 3 Lady Milton Jockey: Rob Hornby Trainer: Jonathan Portman J: Rob Hornby T: Jonathan Portman	98	-	-	-	36%	9/5
