MITTENS (NAP) looks a typical slow-burner from the yard and though hit hard for her victory at Newmarket looks the type to go on to better things. Tirania comfortably landed the odds at Windsor but couldn't quite peg back Time Chaser in a slightly lower-grade handicap at Sandown though is still 5lb higher. Luna Bear signalled an imminent victory when runner-up at Lingfield so it was a surprise when she started 28/1 when successful at Newmarket. That was a Class 5 and she's up 4lb so needs to find more, a remark that also applies to Helfire, who won in that grade event on Polytrack at Lingfield. Soldier's Girl has been narrowly beaten in her last three including from this mark here in May and has the scope to do better so should get involved.
