In an interesting Fillies' Conditions Stakes race, the selection is Para Siempre ahead of Diamond Diva and Medley. Para Siempre is the highest rated of these and comes here seeking a fourth-successive win. The thing is that those wins have come on the all-weather but, with a pedigree that should take to easy going, she looks to be a leading player today. Diamond Diva won on the all-weather last time but, having proven that she can handle ease in the going, she can go well over what seems her favoured trip. Medley, though, is also very interesting, having finished third to Hoh Mike at Listed level two runs ago, and having beaten subsequent Listed winner Cartimandua the time before. She rates as a major player. Dizzy Dreamer hasn't been disgraced at Listed level in recent efforts but maybe will find one or two too good today. Pusey Street Lady comes here seeking a third-successive win but she has something to find on the ratings, while the others need to improve on recent efforts if they are to feature today. All of which returns us to the selection, Para Siempre.
