Ralph Beckett's Aloe Vera makes her much anticipated return to action, and time might ultimately dictate that she is a very smart operator indeed. However, in meeting sustained trouble when running out a most taking winner of the Listed Height Of Fashion Stakes at Goodwood (May 2019) it later transpired that she'd struck into herself, and she was forced to sit out the remainder of her three-year-old season. Therefore, if she has any vulnerabilities, she could be found out in concession of 12lb to the beautifully-bred VIRGIN SNOW. Ed Dunlop's Snow Fairy filly relished the step up in trip (to 1m2f) when taking a competitive Haydock handicap (Class 3) on her seasonal reappearance.
