Verdict

Dantora could hardly have made a better debut when overcoming a tardy start to demolish her field by six lengths at Windsor. She'll faces different ground conditions now but looks a filly of considerable promise. However, she is taken on with POET OF LIFE, hooded for the first time, who ran into every imaginable problem on her Sandown debut before coming home strongly. She should come on considerably for that experience and just gets the nod in receipt of 7lb from the Palmer filly. Nottingham winner, Western Alliance, and the promising pair of Alhammaam and Waldlowe add further spice to a race well worth noting for the future.
