Verdict

Zaakara is bred to be better over further so anything she achieves today will be a bonus but AMERICAN BELLE put up an encouraging debut at Doncaster and was not knocked about in the process. Lady D'ascoyne should appreciate this step up in trip on pedigree while Divina Grace was the subject of interest in the market on her debut here and while no match for the winner, did somewhat vindicate that positive opinion. Sydney Mews was an early foal though connections have taken their time with getting to the racecourse.
