Shown nothing in two starts to date and will probably be seen to better effect in handicaps.

Finsihed third behind Group 2 winner Roly Poly on second start for Dermot Weld but failed to go on from that for the Irish trainer. Now trained with Mark Johnston and signs she was getting back to her best on debut for yard at Lingfield. May not need to improve to win this affair.

Started career in a seller at Lingfield and showed very little so hard to fancy here.

Only beaten five rivals home in four starts and others in here have shown plenty more ability.

9/4
Fetched some eye-catching amounts in the sales ring to date and most recently sold for £95,000 as a two-year-old. This stable do well with their younger horses so she has to be respected in a fairly weak affair such as this.

25/1
Trainers record with newcomers on the AW sits at just over 1% (1-93) so even though she appeals on pedigree and sold for a good price as a two-year-old, it's tough to get overly excited about her chance.

4/1
Finished third behind a smart one on debut but hasn't really gone on from that and disappointed last time out. Needs to bounce back.

9/2
Inconsistent type who has a break to overcome now. Claims on her second at this track on the turf but seems a complicated type.

3/1
Performed well here on debut and Division One of this race may reveal how welll this filly will run as she finished just half a length behind Bithyna. Looks interesting enough on that basis and should come on for debut run.

Forecasts

Garam (9/4), School Run (3/1), Preobrajenska (4/1), Prufrock (9/2), Blue Bahia (11/2), Celerity (20/1), Neptune Star (25/1), Brean Flyer (200/1), Arya Stark (200/1)

Verdict

Another tough fillies' maiden but BLUE BAHLA gets a narrow vote having more than hinted at a return to form last time out. School Run's connections will have a close eye on Division One of this race (14:30) to see if Bithyna can frank their fillies' form. She's also likely to come on for her debut run so she has to be the main danger to the selection while Hugo Palmer knows how to get one ready first time out and Garam is a danger if she's fit enough to do herself justice. 1. Blue Bahia 2. School Run 3. Garam
