        Verdict

        Strawberrymystique should improve on her recent debut effort and the same comment applies to Gabrial's Lexi. However, both have a bit to find to match Parley's third at Newmarket last July and she can go close on her comeback, while Zaina made a promising start at Lingfield in December when just beaten by Tina's Spirit trained by Clive Cox. The Lambourn trainer runs newcomer MORILLES here and she gets the nod to score at the first time of asking as she's a half-sister to a winner on the all-weather and four other winners in the USA.
