None of these have raced on soft ground before but William Haggas has a rare runner at the track with PARADISE COVE and the latter is expected to improve for the extra distance after finishing fourth over a mile at Windsor. Glorvina has had plenty of chances and was still beaten over five lengths when third at Lingfield while Master Me beat only one home at Haydock on her debut. Alfa Queen is a half-sister to a winner and worth a second glance on her introduction.
