Verdict
Zariyna made her debut over this C&D in November and though she ran well enough her pedigree suggests she'll do better when sent over further. Both Anklet and Duntle are well connected fillies who will have benefited from their initial outings though neither showed much while Perroncel is related to a host of winners including the decent sprinter Duff. Jim Bolger's horses have been carrying all before them so his newcomer MISS FORDE is handed the vote as she's the first foal of a winning miler and is by the miler Clodovil.
