Miss Justice²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: W Buick| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 82| BF

5/2

Justify filly who has improved with each of her three runs, second of 10 in maiden at Wolverhampton (8.5f) 22 days ago. Has more to offer, especially now stepped up in trip. A player.

Form: 4-22

(3)

Sweet Reward²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 82| CD

9/1

Scored at Newbury in April but only ninth of 14 in handicap there (10f, firm) 28 days ago. This C&D winner is the sort to bounce back though.

Form: 5744-19

His Finest Hour¹⁷

Weight: 8-4| Age: 4

T: Ian Williams J: Hollie Doyle

Forecasts

Miss Justice (5/2), Approval (11/4), Brioni (9/2), Kind Of Kiss (11/2), Sweet Reward (9/1), Arqoob (12/1), Shihoku (22/1), His Finest Hour (25/1), Incensed (28/1)

This can go the way of MISS JUSTICE who has progressed with each of her three outings to date and now goes handicapping with more to come stepped up in distance. The handily-weighted Brioni could emerge as the main danger to the Gosdens' Justify filly ahead of Kind of Kiss, Sweet Reward and Shihoku.
