Verdict

If Attraction is go on top better things she should find a race like this is well within her capabilities. The Efisio filly, unusually for a Mark Johnston-trained newcomer, got off the mark at the first time of asking in a Nottingham maiden last month. There was plenty to like about the performance and she will be a lot wiser this time around. She is a leggy, unfurnished filly who has plenty of scope for improvement. The Queen Mary Stakes has already been mentioned for her and she is confidently expected to take her next step towards Royal Ascot with another victory today. Mirasol Princess is a half-sister to Yarrita, winner of a couple of sellers last term, is one to consider for the forecast. But the well-bred Allegedly would not have to be anything out of the ordinary to chase the selection home. However, her pedigree suggests that another couple of furlongs will suit Pat Haslam¿s debutante in time. The form of La Puce's victory at Wolverhampton has been boosted a couple of times since but she failed to reproduce the effort last time and has improvement to find.
