11/1, encouraging second of 4 in novice at Haydock (7f, soft) on debut 47 days ago. Open to fair bit of progress now so enters calculations.
Twilight Son filly. Half-sister to 6f/7f winner Poetic Guest. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to smart 5f-1m winner Alo Pura. Not without interest on paper and yard can ready them so respected newcomer.
185,000 gns yearling. Frankel sister to useful 1m winner Middle East and closely related to stable's smart stayer Nayef Road. Dam useful 5f-7f winner. Lots to like on breeding so noteworthy newcomer.
Failed to build on promising debut fifth at Thirsk when last of 10 in maiden (15/2) at York (6f) 26 days ago. In excellent hands so worth another chance.
11/1, hinted at promise when fifth of 7 in minor event at Ripon (8f, good to soft) on debut 4 days ago. Sort to do better in longer term.
11/1, built on debut promise when narrowly-beaten second of 9 in maiden at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Well bred and more to come so solid claims.
€30,000 yearling, Dabirsim filly. Half-sister to several winners, including very smart 10.5f-2m Litigant. Pedigreee appeals so newcomer is not without hope for good yard. Market can guide.
Twice-raced maiden and only modest form shown thus far, seventh of 8 at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Big step forward is required.
Forecasts
Iconic Queen (1/1), Fragrant Storm (4/1), Amasova (5/1), Diamonds At Dusk (10/1), Glitterbox Girl (12/1), Hipsway (18/1), Morjhana (18/1), Sadie's Day (25/1)
FRAGRANT STORM has lots going for her on pedigree so this daughter of Frankel is taken to make a winning debut for the powerful Mark Johnston yard. Iconic Queen has shown plenty to be placed on both her runs so rates the chief threat, while Diamonds At Dusk and Morjhana are not without interest on their respective first starts.
- FRAGRANT STORM
- ICONIC QUEEN
- DIAMONDS AT DUSK
