SHEWALKSINBEAUTY is going the right way and is taken to fend off stablemate Whodathought and Royal Opera, who is respected but faces a much stiffer test than he faced in the maiden he won (in a dead-heat) last time out. There are several others in the race that have bright futures, so it would be advisable to keep tabs on the likes of Malice Or Mischief and Presto Volante over the next few weeks. However, Shewalksinbeauty has done very little wrong in either of her previous starts and, as she looked ready for a step up in trip last time out, it's the mount of Pat Dobbs that takes the eye for a punt in a wide-open contest.
