Verdict

MEZZO SOPRANO's price rose considerably as a 2-y-o and making a good deal of appeal on paper for a yard no stranger to success with newcomers, she could be the way to go in a novice lacking a great deal of depth. Should she not meet expectations, Agnes Grey looks the pick of those with experience and is feared most ahead of Knights Affair.
