BLUE VELVET was picked up for six figures after shaping best (unseated late) in a point and, having joined a top yard, she's likely to make a successful Rules debut in a race that lacks depth. Grainne A Chroi is the likeliest to capitalise if the selection doesn't come up to expectations and Arctic Flame is an interesting newcomer on pedigree.
