Arnhem belied a 50/1 SP with a promising introduction last week and looks certain to do better. She finished a couple of lengths behind Misty At Sea though the latter had the benefit of an earlier run. Ballykelly Venture wasn't beaten far when staying on over a mile three weeks ago but this could prove on the short side. Henry De Bromhead has been unable to find a race for Royal Highness, just touched off in a course and distance claimer before leading at this trip the next twice and being run out of it close home. Gentle M'am has a speedy pedigree but the one to note here is ANNIE B, who cost 190,000gns as a foal which is hardly surprising given she's a half-sister to 10 winners, several on the all-weather.
