BOOTS LIKE BRUCE (1) did well when resuming over 5f at this track last start, finishing second and beaten a head. Ready to find peak form this time. BIRD'S THE WORD (6) raced on the speed and kept going to score by a head last time out over 7f at this track. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. DUCHESS OF GOSSIP (2) is a five-time winner who has been at the top of her game of late, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth last time out over 6f at this track. Races well here and expected to figure in the finish. NOTEWORTHY (13) settled well back from a wide draw last time then wound up strongly to finish fourth over 6½f at this track. Solid top-three prospects.
