Exceed And Excel filly; first foal from the stamina-laden French mare Sacre Caroline (a 1m4f winner); that dam was a half-sister to the US 1m-1m2f Grade 1 turf winner Lady Eli.

Horse silk
7/1
34,000gns foal, £95,000 yearling; fourth foal from a fair dam who was a half-sister to the 7f Group 3 scorer Rimth; closely related to the 6f juvenile AW winner Tashaaboh; more than likely is one for the shortlist.

(4)
Horse silk
15/2
€75,000 yearling; first foal from an unraced dam who was a half-sister to the Listed-placed 1m winner Illusion; ticks plenty of the required boxes, and could be sharp enough to make her presence felt; of interest.
11
(7)
Horse silk
3/1
Sixth foal from a 5f juvenile scorer (An Ghalanta); half-sister to various winners including Bletchley (5f-1m½f) and Elegant Annie (1m); carries the Qatar Racing silks and probably worthy of close market scrutiny as a result.
12
(2)
Horse silk
18/1
£82,000 yearling; first foal from the Listed-placed 5f juvenile scorer Silk Bow; trainer known to have the odd useful juvenile at his disposal; certainly would warrant a basic market check.

Forecasts

Time Scale (3/1), Happy Romance (4/1), Sardinia Sunset (7/1), Mahale (7/1), Sense Of Romance (15/2), Sacred (11/1), Bungledupinblue (14/1), Wings Of A Dove (18/1), Grey Sparkle (18/1), Magical Diva (33/1), Risque (40/1), Angels Will Rise (40/1)

Verdict

The first of four successive days racing at Newmarket commences with a sprint maiden for juvenile fillies, and as a result there's precious little from which to base a solid opinion, so stakes should be kept to the bare minimum. Richard Hannon is doubly-represented with Happy Romance and Risque, while others more than worthy of a second glance include Time Scale (Ralph Beckett) and Wings Of A Dove (Richard Spencer). However, the pair who appeal most on pedigree are Sardinia Sunset (Roger Varian) and SENSE OF ROMANCE (James Tate) with the scales tipping narrowly towards the latter named for the selection.
  1. Sense Of Romance
  2. Sardinia Sunset
  3. Wings Of A Dove
