Moderate tempo expected with She's A Beauty likely to find the front over Sirgeeo and Capital Grace. ZOUCLAIRE (11) raced in rich company in her maiden preparation and looked a run short resuming at Sandown-Hillside after a stable switch. The blinkers go on for the first time, and Jamie Melham goes aboard. Steps up to a mile and the well-bred filly will be tough to beat. SHE'S A BEAUTY (8) found one better here last time from a wide draw, but improved again and has an inside gate today. She's going well enough to take seriously. ILOVETHISTOWN (2) has pieces of form that would see him right in the finish and can show more fourth-up and on a dry surface. He's on a quick backup, and the inside barrier should be advantageous. CAPITAL GRACE (5) missed a whisker at Bairnsdale, stepping up to this trip. She's still shy of her best and can't be ruled out. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Zouclaire.
