raced wide, outpaced in last pair, some late headway, never on terms
went right start, off the pace towards rear, never on terms
chased winner who went clear halfway, lost 2nd over 2f out, weakened 2f out, behind and eased final furlong
chased leading pair, went 2nd over 2f out, kept on same pace final furlong, no chance with winner
made all, went clear halfway, ran on strongly, unchallenged
chased leaders on outside, pushed along halfway, ridden and no impression when lost 3rd inside final furlong
slowly into stride, soon in touch on rail, pushed along before 2 out, weakened final furlong
off the pace towards rear, never a factor
Magical Dreamer ended last season with a string of placed efforts and is 2lb higher on her return. Maureb and Sandra's Secret are others usually in the mix without winning while Show Stealer drops in class and Queen In Waiting should be sharper for a recent reappearance. The latter comment also applies to CROTCHET, who failed to figure at Newmarlket on her return to action but looks to have every chance in this with more to come from Richard Fahey’s filly.
