Sanctijude¹⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Billy Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 83

4/1

Fairly useful form at 2 yrs, running up to best when edged out post in an 11-runner Gowran maiden (1m) on final start in October. Experience edge over most will count for plenty and no surprise to see her in the thick of things.

White Sand Beach¹⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Wayne Lordan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 85| BF

5/2

Superbly-bred Dubawi filly was placed all 3 starts as a juvenile, showing something akin to debut form when second in 9-runner maiden at Gowran (1m) in October. Longer trips may see her to best effect but she's a definite player on form.

Form: 232-

Forecasts

Drop Dead Gorgeous (1/1), White Sand Beach (5/2), Sanctijude (4/1), Chestnut Palace (7/1), Fleur De Provence (16/1), Sofi's Gift (66/1), Magna Kotcha (100/1), Sea Of Dubka (150/1), Divine Believer (200/1), Ellie Roo (300/1)

DROP DEAD GORGEOUS lacks the experience of a few but there's no doubting her credentials on paper so Aidan O'Brien's filly could be worth siding with to make a successful debut. Her stablemate White Sand Beach holds an experience edge and is an obvious player on her 2-y-o form, as is Sanctijude. Chestnut Palace is another interesting newcomer who warrants market attention.
