ONE SECOND (NAP) is a half-sister to an all-weather winner in Dubai. She showed definite promise in maidens on Turf last season and, though having a first run since July, is unlikely to fail through lack of fitness and can beat more-exposed types as there is plenty of stamina on her dam’s side. Sotomayor beat Dream Malfunction and Mouchee at Lingfield last month but he was beaten by Font Vert over a shorter trip at Kempton in January. Banksy's Art is likely to do better now going handicapping but an opening mark of 68 leaves little leeway.
