Verdict

It won’t be a surprise if this turns out to be a very decent fillies maiden with several of these capable of improvement after showing plenty of promise last year. Neshmeya would be high on any shortlist as would Pure Shores and the unraced Love Conquers from a stable that has done well in this race. Fashion Theory gives Godolphin a strong 1-2 punch in this but with the Varian yard up and running his SERENADA is the choice here in a tricky heat. She looked anything but the finished article in her sole start last year and is expected to know far more now with that run and a winter under her belt.
  1. Serenada
  2. Neshmeya
  3. Love Conquers
