A valuable sales race that is open to fillies that were catalogued in part 1 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sales of 2007. We like the look of proven seven furlong winner MY SUPERSTAR ahead of Ahla Wasahl and Kissing The Camera. Although unlikely to be any great price for such a competitive and large field, Sir Michael Stoute's Sadler's Wells filly comes here as a progressive individual who learnt plenty from first to second runs. The horse she beat last time has run well in defeat since and she gets the narrow vote. Kissing The Camera is a course winner who took a six furlong maiden on her debut. The form of that run looks solid and having not been disgraced in a pair of Group Two races since, she should go well. La Adelita steps up in class today following a close second last time at Yarmouth, Lady Francesca is a potential improver after just one promising start, whilst Indian Tonic and Moneycantbuymelove have shown enough to get competitive. The Miniver Rose and Vitoria both come here on the back of recent wins, whilst Ahla Wasahl was disappointing behind star filly Rainbow View last time but she is rated better than that. A tough race to call, however preference is for My Superstar.
