Verdict

As ever in these events, the market will prove informative. Lust For Glory will be top of plenty of people's lists as she represents a yard that do well in these events and connections were happy to pay a pretty penny for her at the sales. Buildmeupbuttercup has the benefit of experience and a win under her belt to boot, but this looks a bit tougher. At this stage, a chance is taken on ROSY WORLD, who makes plenty of appeal on pedigree and the yard do introduce the odd nice type here. Her full sister Storm Patrol went close on her debut too, which gives some hope that she might be forward enough herself.
  1. Rosy World
