ESMERAY was notably strong in the betting when third in a Pontefract 0-100 but ultimately shaped as if the outing was needed a shade more than the market expected. Ralph Beckett's filly can step forward dropped in grade with race fitness now on her side, though recent Windsor winner First Officer and Party Island, who scored on the AW track last time, also merit plenty of respect.
