PASTORAL STAR had to drop into seller to get off the mark at Ffos Las three weeks ago but this isn't much better and Hughie Morrison's filly may be able to dominate again. Perfect Quest has been below her best in her last two but would have a chance on her form at the start of the summer. The longer trip could be a problem for Ventura Falcon, however, and Frivolous Lady appears to have lost the plot. Likewise Tea Gown and it looks as though French import Evidence may need longer to acclimatise.
Evidence (FR) 20-1 (9-1) Soon led, pushed along and headed over 2f out, soon lost 2nd, chased leading pair until 1f out, weakened inside final furlong, 5th of 8, 6 3/4l behind Mischief Maisy (8-0) at Lingfield 1m 4f hcp fll (5) pol in Jul.
Perfect Quest 9-2 (9-3) Slowly into stride, outpaced in rear, kept on from over 1f out, no impression, 5th of 9, 4l behind Fast And Hot (8-11) at Lingfield 1m 2f hcp (6) gf in Jul.
Pastoral Star 9-4 (8-5) Made all, edged right from over 3f out, pressed over 1f out, in command inside final furlong, stayed on, won at Ffos Las 1m 2f stks (6) gd in Jul beating Flutterbee (9-5) by 1 1/2l, 5 ran.
Ventura Falcon (IRE) 16-1 (9-4) Held up, in last pair, headway over 1f out, pushed along and plugged on inside final furlong, never going pace to get involved, 6th of 12, 4 1/2l behind Music Major (9-4) at Kempton 1m hcp (6) pol in Aug.
Tea Gown (IRE) 16-1 (9-10) In rear, ridden over 2f out, never a factor, 6th of 8, 9 1/2l behind Lulani (10-0) at Sandown 1m 1f hcp fll (5) gf in Jul.
