Verdict

Bullfinch won at Chelmsford back in November and an apprentice’s allowance negates part of a penalty but STUNNING BEAUTY is the more recent winner. She scored by four lengths at Newmarket on her debut with subsequent winners behind and the Godolphin filly looks a potentially smart recruit on that evidence. The remainder with experience make no appeal but Lights On cost 250,000gns as a half-sister to a Group 3 winner in France and is preferred to First Charge and Supercali of the newcomers.
