Verdict
Mebsuta produced the best effort of the three with experience on her debut at Ripon, but she was still beaten seven lengths and one of the newcomers could prove better than that. Miss Rosie is related to sprint winners in America and she's worth considering, while Musical Valley is another to note. However, Tim Easterby won this last year and looks to have a good chance of doing so again with the half-sister to five winners YEARBOOK.
