In depth

Verdict

Neither Flawless Filly nor Nabat Ali showed much in their first season so this is likely to go to a newcomer. Chance Me is the second foal of a mare who produced a winner in Italy with her first. Zarma is half-sister to a winning hurdler and looks a real staying type while Hurrem Sultan is a daughter of a mare who won over a mile in Dubai. OVERLAND EXPRESS is closely related to several winners, including a Grade 3 winner in the USA, and may be capable of making a successful start though checking the market looks the best option here.
