ARABIAN BRIDE found only one too good when sent off joint-favourite for her debut at Carlisle. Normal progress should see her off the mark in this given Grand Proposal was well beaten at the same meeting at Carlisle, though still finished ahead of Elizabeth Ernest. The latter's stablemate Why No Rein and fellow newcomer What Could She Be should be noted for any support in the betting.
