Kingman filly. Sister to useful winner up to 1m Ready To Venture and half-sister to winner abroad by Siyouni. Makes plenty of appeal on paper so she's an interesting newcomer for top yard.

Forecasts

Cherry (4/6), Eastern Empress (4/1), Heavens To Betsy (9/2), Imperial Quarter (9/2), La Francesa (12/1), Waxing Gibbous (20/1), Silver Bobbin (80/1)

Verdict

A fair bit of potential on show here and the betting should reveal plenty. EASTERN EMPRESS took a big step forward when third at Kempton last time and with this shorter trip a likely plus she gets the nod ahead of Cherry, who has shown some fair form and rates a big threat. Newcomers Heavens To Betsy and La Francesa catch the eye on paper so need considering too, epecially if the market vibes are positive.
