The superbly bred HOLAMO is a tentative selection to land this fillies maiden for Marco Botti and Renata Jacobs ahead of the likes of Honimiere and Sri Kandi. Backed from an opening show of 8-1 into an SP of 7-2, Holamo was very green in the early stages at Kempton and was not over faced by her rider down the straight when her chance had gone. Clearly much better was expected that evening at Kempton but the ground is the unknown but that can be said for the majority of these. Sri Kandi went into her last race with the same credentials as Holamo today, being strongly supported first time out. She showed definite promise at Kempton and one should not read too much into the fact she was so far adrift of the winner Simple Solution as Barry Hills filly looks very smart and is all set to fry bigger fish over the coming months. She raced right to the line at Kempton and the encouraging thing was that none of those which travelled well behind her into the straight managed to pass her. Ailsa Craig was weak in the market on debut and never got involved. She should be better for the experience while Haakima is a once raced filly that showed plenty first time out in what looked a smart maiden at Newmarket. She needed to be rousted along at an early stage in that and the experience should leave her all the better for today. Honimiere returns following 111 days off the track and the trainers record stepping juveniles up in trip and bringing about improved form is there for all to see. An interesting fillies maiden and Holamo is the selection.
