Rose Of Honour

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Rossa Ryan| T: J Tate

15/8

75,000 gns Night of Thunder filly. Half-sister to 6f winner Spring Lantern. Dam, smart 5f-1m winner (including Prix de Ris-Orangis). The stable sent out the smart Electric Storm to make a winning debut in this 2 years ago. Very interesting to see what the betting makes of her.

Forecasts

Rock Iguana (6/4), Rose Of Honour (15/8), Media Darling (10/3), Encore (17/2), Freddie's Star (12/1), Neyva's Angel (40/1), Teardrops (250/1), Henry Tudor (300/1), Maybella (300/1)

ROCK IGUANA gets a narrow vote ahead of fellow previous winner Media Darling. Rose of Honour, whose yard won this with a smart one in the Saeed Manana silks in 2023, and Encore, are well-bred newcomers who would also need considering if the betting suggests they are fancied.
