Built on a promising debut when making all over 6f at Windsor last month. Not up to Group 3 company at Salisbury since but bounced back when close fourth of 10 in nursery at Lingfield (5f, AW, 11/2), running on. Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving Richard Hughes. Respected.

Pinafore (4/6), International Girl (9/2), Coco Jamboo (11/2), Song Of Success (10/1), Ey Up It's Maggie (11/1)

The progressive PINAFORE shaped very well when fourth on her handicap bow/return at Newmarket last month, ridden much more prominently than the trio that beat her, and she remains of strong interest. Song of Success was a close fourth on her nursery bow at Lingfield on her final start and is feared most starting out for James Fanshawe.
