Classy filly STAR ROCK looks to have been found a decent opportunity here having twice gone close at Group Two level this term and now down a peg to Group Three. Mrs Sippy looks the best of the three-year-olds and won with a bit in hand last time out in a French Listed race after two Group Two fourths. This level in between may well be within her compass. Sun Maiden has been disappointing since the Ribblesdale where she was an excellent third considering her inexperience at the time but Sir Michael Stoute is renowned for his patience so she could yet prove her worth at this level.
