Tattersalls £40,000 EBF Fillies' Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

Promise amid inexperience on her Beverley debut (5f, good to soft) and still looked a work in progress when winning a 6f novice at Ripon eight days ago; had the benefit of the rail to help her but she kept on well enough; she will need to progress again to defy a penalty against some interesting opposition, though.

Weak 9-1 shot for her C&D debut 18 days ago but she made a bold bid, travelling strongly but finding one too strong in the closing stages; that effort was backed up by the Topspeed figure and she sets a useful standard for the newcomers to aim at before factoring in progress.

March foal; 550,000gns yearling; fourth foal; Minzaal half-sister to winners Mill Stream (6f including 2yo/Group 1 July Cup; RPR 120) and Asymmetric (5f/6f including 2yo Group 2; 109); dam 5f/6f winner (including 2yo; 83); strong paper claims for a trainer who is already off the mark with his 2yos.

March foal; 35,000gns yearling; seventh foal; Starspangledbanner half-sister to four winners including Grocer Jack (1m2f/10.5f including German/Italian Group 3; RPR 116) and Ghislaine (7f-8.7f including Listed; 99); dam German 1m-1m3f winner (including Group 3; 104); not obviously precocious on paper but worth a market check.

Late April foal by Havana Grey; 135,000gns yearling, 350,000gns breeze-up 2yo; eighth foal; sister to 5f/6f winner Pilgrim (including 2yo; RPR 106), half-sister to winners Moraawed (6f/7f; 92) and Crash Helmet (6f AW; 71); dam 5f 2yo winner (74), half-sister to 6f 2yo Group 2 winner Temple Meads; looks the part on paper and she makes her debut with her yard in form.
