Only one of Queenie Rooney’s five winning siblings has won on Turf and she made her debut on Tapeta at Newcastle in May. Her absence since is a bit of a concern and EQUITY’S DARLING makes more appeal as her victory at Thirsk at the end of June has worked out quite well. Nahwand never recovered from a tardy start at Haydock and is probably better than that while Fermanagh is worth a market check being a half-sister to four winners.
