Verdict

SHAVASI has progressed with each of her three starts to date, most recently opening her account in a 1m Killarney maiden, and she may well find the necessary improvement to follow up on this handicap debut. She may have most to fear from fellow handicap debutante Beechwood, who chased home a potentially smart colt over the aforementioned C&D last month and her mark could be a fair one. La Dame Blanche is third choice, though both Letiza and No Niki No also have claims in a competitive contest.
