Verdict

ICONIC BELLE was beaten only a head in a handicap over 1m2f at Newcastle last time and was placed over today’s longer trip before that. She has the beating of Tiar Na Nog and Navajo Grey on these terms and may prove good enough in a weak maiden. Lady Persephone was a well beaten fourth at Lingfield on her debut on the Flat but still finished in front of Alizee Javilex while Nafaayes and Little Ambitious have shown little between them so far.
