Sikara made a promising racecourse debut on testing ground behind Bible Belt at Roscommon in September and with her stable going well can get competitive. Adiynara has looked as though this trip would suit on her three starts to date and she was certainly not stopping when runner-up to Maundays Bay over 7f here in December. Aidan O'Brien has found a nice opportunity for SHE'S A QUEEN to make her debut. This daughter of Peintre Celebre is a half-sister to a useful performer in France and out of a mare who won a Listed event over 1m2f so can make a successful start to her career. Black Belt ran a couple of fair races over the C&D late last year and should have made progress over the winter.
