Ciel Etoile will be suited by middle distances this year though she's having her first start on the surface. She's by Azamour as is the newcomer Azamesse, who should be given a market check as her stable can get one ready. FACT OR FOLKLORE is also making her all-weather debut and she's ben running on ground with plenty of give but in the hope she handles the surface she's gets the vote. Realt Eile ran quite well here in August and she'll be a threat if ready after her break.
