Half-sister to a 1m turf winner, emulated the feat but over 7f at Newcastle when last seen in November. Her yard has made a quiet but positive start to the new season,so very feasible the filly can strike an early blow. Worth considering.

Slowly away and never a factor on debut over an extended 1m1f here in February but is nicely bred and should have benefited from the run. The drop in trip might help but the gelding already has improvement to find.

Related to several winning sprinters; many of whom handled AW surfaces. Yard can get one ready first time out but likelihood is that the gelding will be one to benefit from this experience.

By Derby winner Pour Moi out of a Selkirk mare, this half-brother to a a number of middle distance winners made little impression in defeat at Kempton last September. Improvement required but is in the right hands. Still worth a betting check.

Up in trip and a big improvement on the form she showed on two starts in Ireland is required. Others readily preferred.

Slowly away and ran green on debut at Kempton last month but her pedigree suggest the filly will probably find this extra distance more suitable; improvement required.

Forecasts

Sunset Flash (5/6), Song Without End (11/8), Liliofthelamplight (11/1), Fields Of Dreams (14/1), Melwood (28/1), Katie O'hara (100/1)

Verdict

SUNSET FLASH ran on well to win over seven furlongs when last seen but wasn't showing any signs of stopping and looks sure to appreciate at least a mile as she gains in experience. This looks a weak race and the filly may be very capable of giving weight away in this company. Song Without End needs to take a big step forward from his debut run last September but he's a well-bred individual who represents a powerful yard that is sure to have him in good shape for his reappearance. Field Of Dreams also has improvement to find but is another with an eye-catching pedigree that should be able to make his mark as he progresses from here.
