12/1
Won her first three starts for the yard on the AW before she was more highly tried in a French Listed AW contest at Deauville (not disgraced). Could be vulnerable back on turf off a 6lb higher mark and giving weight to some promising fillies.

13/2
Handicap newcomer who is handicapped on just two starts; beautifully bred (dam six times Group 1 winner Snow Fairy). Looks the type to progress and improvement expected now she's upped in trip off what looks a very workable mark, one to consider.

9/4
Unbeaten and well-bred filly who is 2-2 on the AW and now steps onto turf and into a handicap for the first time. Opening handicap mark looks fair and although she faces some other progressive types she has a leading chance.

Steadily progressive last year showing her best form over 1m with give in the ground on her most recent two starts. Mark looks fair and this stiffest test she has faced yet should suit; not without a hope on handicap debut.

improved with each of her starts during the winter period on the AW opening her account over 1m at Lingfield. Still not totally exposed, enters handicaps for the first time but does need a little more to make an impression in this company.

7/4
A debut second at Newcastle over 7f showed that she had ability (bred to be useful); benefitted from that experience to get off the mark on Fibresand as a 2yo over 1m. Had plenty in hand and now steps into handicaps up in trip; has to be of interest.

Forecasts

Finery (7/4), Beautiful Illusion (9/4), Virgin Snow (13/2), Made In Italy (8/1), Salsada (11/1), Merryweather (12/1), Rainbow Jet (16/1)

Verdict

A real puzzle set by this fillies handicap with six of the seven making their handicap debuts with three of them just having two starts for the handicapper to work on. Beautiful Illusion winner of both her AW starts sets a useful standard but it’s another contender transferring from the AW in FINERY that takes the eye for a yard that do well with this type. Salsada and Rainbow Jet would both appreciate any further rain with the beautifully bred Virgin Snow looking sure to progress further in time like her dam the Group 1 winner Snow Fairy.
