Some fascinanting newcomers from some top yards including Wise Little Girl and Movie Mogul, however we will side with the once raced Silver Pivotal, with Cape Thea another to keep on the right side. The selection showed plenty of promise on her debut in a hot maiden at Newmarket last October. It was a very rough race and after plenty of argy bargy she did well to finish fifth. The stable has made a promising start to the new campaign and with that run under her belt we expect and improved performance this afternoon. Glancing at the pick of the debutante's, Movie Mogul is a 100 thousand euros daugher of Sakhee and the Michael Jarvis trained Wise Little Girl is a well bred Singspiel filly. The market will of course give clues to their relative chances. Cape Thea has shown ability on the all-weather already and could be good value to reach the frame, however Silver Pivotal is expected to improve a great deal on that debut run and she gets our vote.
