        In depth

        Verdict

        Spitfire Jane will be difficult to beat in this seller; the list of dangers is headed by Shabnaam and Cherished Song. The selection is clearly a nice filly and she remains unexposed after only two runs. She showed improved form at Wolverhampton last time out and if she can build on that then she can take all the beating. Shabnaam has ability but she has had a few chances now and she did weaken quickly at Lingfield last time. The step-up in trip is not sure to suit her and she looks one to take on. Cherished Song was a fair third in a seller here last time behind Copperbottomed but she is another that still has plenty to prove over this trip. Amazing Day disappointed at Wolverhampton last time but he will have needed the run after an absence and if he is over the problems that have clearly hampered his career so far, then he could go well. Spitfire Jane is open to plenty of improvement and she looks the one to beat.
