Starship is bred to go well at this trip as a juvenile, and in a race where there is very little to go on, we will take the booking of Kieren Fallon as significant and side with the filly to be too good for Fyvie and perhaps Master Pegasus. The selection is by Galileo and is a half sister to dual mile winner Phi Phi. She should hopefully be straight enough for what is not the strongest of maidens. Fyvie is another debutante who is bred to come more into her own at three, but who is bred to stay and should be comfortable over a mile here. She is well connected and market confidence would be a boost. Of those with turf form thus far, I'm In Love's Newbury run in September is probably the best form on offer and improvement would make her competitive again, while Master Pegasus has been out twice also and can be thereabouts. But Starship has the pedigree to suggest she can take this en route to better things.
