Verdict
Oriental Maid is by Sakhee's Secret so shouldn't be short of speed and wouldn't have to be a world-beater to make a winning debut. Misty Sparkler has the highest official rating of these but she hasn't raced over the minimum since her debut while Mahon Falls is probably also better over further. CHUCKAMENTAL showed good speed on a couple of occasion on Turf last year and, though he hasn't raced since September, may well be quick enough to show these a clean pair of heels.
