Verdict

SHANNING can maintain her unbeaten record by following up a French Flat success in this opening mares maiden hurdle. The selection hails from a leading stable and can get the better of the unraced True Identity who is well-bred and another who represents a leading stable. Of the remainder Amarillo Rose ran one of her better races last time out and can finish best of the rest.
