The feature event of the year at Beverley and the highly regarded Haigh Hall is selected to land it for the Tim Easterby yard who hold such a wonderful record in this prestigious event confined to juvenile fillies. A half-sister to the former smart performer Don't Dili Dali, the selection was well-touted prior to her racecourse debut at Thirsk and produced a performance to back-up what connections had thought of her despite showing signs of greenness. The front two drew well clear and she looks very exciting and can land this en-route to the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot. Percolator appears the main danger but has a wide draw to overcome. She has shown real progression in her three outings this season and was last seen at Longchamp when winning a 5 furlong contest confined to fillies in what was a decent time. The quality of what she beat was questionable while ground conditions might be on the lively side. Aspen Darlin produced a very pleasing effort at York recently, overcoming early interference and a re-production of that would maker her very hard to keep out of the frame. While the remainder consist of plenty winners, they might have the class to cope with the first three mentioned and the Irish raider Ohiyesa could prove best of the rest. Haigh Hall is the selection.
