Having showed ability on debut SAGUARO BLOSSOM ultimately found Group 3 company too strong on her second start at Newmarket 3 weeks ago and Brian Meehan's filly is fancied to play a lead role now back in calmer waters. Bee My Honey, Ironist and Linear Spirit all rate likely improvers and head up the dangers, in that order.

    Verdict
    Fair filly who matched her reappearance form when creditable third of 13 in maiden (7/1) at this C&D 22 days ago, weakening final 100 yds. A return to 6f may well suit ideally on that evidence.

    Verdict
    Mehmas filly who proved very easy to back but she produced a promising first effort when second of 13 in novice at Windsor (6f, heavy, 28/1) on debut in October, doing well in the circumstances having blown the start. Looks sure to improve on that this term.

    Coulsty filly who showed plenty to work on when second of 13 in maiden at this C&D (40/1) on debut 22 days ago, clearly getting the hang of things late on. Another who looks sure to improve.

    Arizona filly made an encouraging start when fifth of 12 in maiden at Lingfield (7f, AW) in March. Enhanced her form without threatening upped markedly in class when coming in ninth of 10 in Group 3 Nell Gwyn Stakes at Newmarket (7f) 3 weeks ago and claims returned to calmer waters.

    Verdict
    Twice-raced filly. Sixth of 13 in maiden at this C&D (33/1) 22 days ago, outpaced over 2f out and no extra final 1f. Handicaps will prove more suitable after this.

    Verdict
    Twice-raced filly. Still green and failed to improve on debut form when fifth of 10 in maiden at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to soft, 14/1) in November. Likely best watched on this return from 6 months off.

    Make Believe filly who has stamina in her pedigree and she offered something to work on when fifth of 13 in maiden at this C&D on debut 22 days ago, that despite not being ideally placed. Open to improvement, not least when tackling 1m+.
