Verdict
Exactement has no easy task on her debut as all five opponents have already won. Lucies Diamond got off the mark in soft ground at Ripon and Madam Mojito won at Wolverhampton while Ingleby Royale and Lothian Countess both won their racecourse debuts before running in a Listed race at York last time. Richard Fahey's filly came out best of the pair to finish fifth, but didn't show a great deal of improvement and HIDDON COIN is preferred. He stepped up on his debut effort to make all over 6f at Redcar last week and the drop back in distance shouldn't be too much of an inconvenience.
