Champagne Marengo has had his chances and disappointed at Chepstow though will have found the ground too fast. Harvest Bow and Sunblessed ran in what looked a decent fillies' maiden at Gowran last weekend and both will have come on plenty for the experience. QUEEN MIA made a nice start over 5f at Navan last month where she found the trip much too short. This is more like it and she can get off the mark. Highway To Success wasn't beaten far when unfancied at Fairyhouse and that should have brought him on enough to get into contention.
