Race Summary
Having won comfortably at Newmarket, JUST AMBER steps up in class from an 8lb higher mark. The manner in which Clive Cox’s filly scored, however, suggests she could be up to the task and, in a trappy affair, she receives a tentative vote. New Heights ought to appreciate the drop in trip following a below-par effort over 1m2f at Windsor, and Tyler Saunders’ 5lb claim should further aid her chances. Celtic Empress shouldn’t be underestimated either.
