Verdict
Belezza Oscura showed good pace on her debut over 6f here but couldn't get anywhere near shock winner Sparklingsovereign over an extra furlong last month. Daisy Bell was well supported over track and trip last month but couldn't make any impression on Zunera or the runner-up Well Done Me, who was running her best race to date. She looks the best of those with experience though a chance is taken on the newcomer ELLIANO. Andy Oliver's daughter of Equiano cost 40,000 euros and has a very speedy pedigree so she's taken to make a successful start.
