Made plenty of appeal on paper and showed ability amidst inexperience when fifth of 8 in maiden at Salisbury on debut in September. One to note with yard's runners often learning plenty from their first outing.

Foaled February 13. Night of Thunder filly. Closely related to smart winner up to 7f Dubawi Legend and half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 1¼m-1½m winner Golden Pass. Trainer's newcomers tend to be better for their first experience.

Foaled March 3. 80,000 gns yearling, Kingman filly. Dam, 5f-6f winner, half-sister to smart 5.5f-1m winner Love Spirit. Yard capable of readying one on debut, so she's worth a market check with stable also represented by Learning.

Has progressed with each of her 3 starts so far, taking on 3 previous winners and acquitting herself very well when second of 4 in conditions stakes at Newbury 2 weeks ago. Leading contender.

Showed plenty to work on first time up when second of 6 in novice at Kempton 23 days ago, the winner looking a bright prospect in making it 2 from 2. Respected with improvement to come.

Forecasts

Pink Larkspur (7/4), Learning (15/8), Concurrent (5/2), Ibtekar (14/1), India's Ridge (25/1)

Verdict

LEARNING continued her race-by-race progression when runner-up in a conditions event at Newbury a fortnight ago, giving a good account from the front, and she could be ready to get off the mark this time around. Pink Larkspur is feared most after her promising second at Kempton on debut, ahead of Concurrent.
