Verdict
BITTALEMON upped her game in first-time blinkers at Epsom and handled the soft ground well, so she makes most appeal in the hope that she can do better still. The Dancing Poet enhanced an excellent track record when scoring last month, so he's a big danger, while Bulldog Spirit is worthy of respect.
