100/1

Fast Company filly. Dam showed little on Flat. Doesn't make much appeal on paper.

Forecasts

Little Soiree (5/6), A Law Of Her Own (3/1), Lake Winnipesaukee (7/1), Reginalds Tower (15/2), Galvarino (12/1), Elusive Guy (20/1), Arnacoeur (33/1), Watergrangedreamer (40/1), Jocks Comin Home (40/1), Save Face (50/1), Answering (66/1), Red Lodge (66/1), Tea It Is (80/1), Toor Moon (100/1), Quick Bet (100/1), Glanaree (100/1), Cherry Red (250/1)

LITTLE SOIREE narrowly failed to justify strong support at Ballinrobe first time out and is firmly expected to get off the mark this time at the likely expense of A Law of Her Own, who travelled strongly when second to a stablemate of the selection recently. Lake Winnipesaukee is the pick of the remainder.
