Useful filly. Five wins from 7 runs last year. 33/1, creditable 1¼ lengths third of 9 to Soft Whisper in minor event at this course (7f, good) 21 days ago, left poorly placed. Easy to look elsewhere in this company though.

5/6
Smart filly. 125/100, good ¾-length second of 6 to Haughty in Grade 2 Lake Placid Stakes at Saratoga (8.5f, firm) in August, poorly placed. Sets a good standard and looks the one to beat on return.

Forecasts

With The Moonlight (5/6), Soft Whisper (3/1), White Moonlight (17/2), Wild Beauty (17/2), Samedi Rien (20/1), Internationalangel (20/1), Lyrical Poetry (25/1), Ascot Brass (40/1), Fall In Love (40/1), Kennella (40/1), Katoucha (50/1), In Time (66/1)

Verdict

Charlie Appleby's smart filly WITH THE MOONLIGHT holds the edge on form and has won after an absence so looks the way to go on her return for her in-form yard. Recent course scorer Soft Whisper is next on the list ahead of French mare Fall In Love.
