ROCK OF FAME is an obvious starting point after a much improved effort on her handicap debut last month. She's due for a 6lb rise in future handicaps so the relatively quick reappearance is a logical move. Marie's Gem also appreciated a stronger test of stamina last time out and he too can make this a good test for the rest. other the others: Diva Kareem needs to prove her stamina will hold out but has shown enough promise to merit an interest for a place in the frame; while Pilot Wings is another who can go close if he copes with the switch to racing on turf again. Global Agreement has little to find and completes the shortlist.
