        Verdict

        This race has thrown up a number of smart fillies over the years, and as such it would be no surprise to see one of the newcomers land the spoils; we just prefer Cefira to Coqueteria and the more experienced Du Pre and Noyac. Both Du Pre and Noyac made very promising debuts in decent maidens and are sure to be popular, as they both have the advantage of racecourse experience. Du Pre is just preferred, having finished third here on her debut and seems sure to learn from that. Coqueteria hails from a stable which often finds a smart juvenile filly and she has a nice US pedigree so should be respected, especially if the market speaks in her favour. David Loder's Varnay and John Dunlop's Snow Goose have to be respected, but neither makes any real appeal on breeding and the latter in particular is likely to need a good deal further than this six furlong trip to show her best. Nick Littmoden's Wavertree Girl makes some appeal, but we just side with Mark Tompkins' filly, Cefira. By Distant View, she is closely related to some fast juveniles and gets a tentative vote to make a winning debut under Philip Robinson.
