In depth
Verdict
Almareekh has run with promise in a couple of starts at Kempton. Hidden Sky was third at Beverley 11 days ago but more will be needed. OCEAN PEARL fell out of the stalls here on debut and was never really travelling but she is bred in the purple and much better is expected with that run under her belt. Ice Sprite was also slowly away at Newmarket in November and is capable of better while Arabian Romance was a €105,000 yearling who is a half-sister to a middle-distance winner. Kannoor was an eye-catcher under tender handling at Newmarket but her pedigree suggests she’ll be best over a mile.
