Peintre D'etoiles returns to novice company having failed to land a handicap. But she looks pretty exposed and WHITE WILLOW is taken to improve past her. The latter showed promise when third over track and trip on a recent debut and Richard Fahey’s filly gets the vote given neither Minute Waltz nor Rothson have shown any worthwhile form as of yet. Dubai Lady is related to a winner on the all-weather and may get involved.
