Third-partyMilitary Girl heads this six-runner sprint at Thirsk on a rating that leaves her narrowly ahead of Vince L'Amour and J Street, with Azuinthejungle also capable of making her work. Those three rivals represent the chief threats, yet Military Girl's form gives her a clear edge in quality over this Class 5 company and five furlongs on good ground looks tailor-made. **Military Girl** is our selection.
