Virgin Bet Fillies' Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

Due Diligence filly. Half-sister to useful 5f winner Beautiful Diamond. Showed plenty on belated debut when second in Newcastle maiden for John Butler last month but went backwards starting out for this yard there 11 day ago, pulling hard.

£38,000 yearling. Kodi Bear filly. Sister to 9f winner Killeaney Bear. Made a winning start despite being relatively unfancied in the betting in C&D novice in September. In good hands and open to improvement so good chance she can defy a penalty.

€120,000 2-y-o, Mehmas filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful winner up to 7f Raaeb. Dam, 1½m winner, half-sister to smart 7f/1m winner Ghaamer. Unable to justify short odds at Southwell on debut last month but showed enough to think she will be winning races sooner rather than later.

€130,000 yearling by Havana Grey, first foal of a 5f winner, sister to useful winner up to 1m Elaire Noire. Hooded, showed ability but looked a hard ride when fourth of 8 in novice at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 12/1) on debut 20 days ago and not certain to build on that.

Night of Thunder filly. Sister to useful 7f-1m winner Raheena and half-sister to several winners, including smart 1¼m-1½m winner Aaddeey. Unable to sustain her challenge having tried to take on the odds-on favourite a fair way out in maiden at Wolverhampton on debut in August. Should improve.
