On the bare form, the one to beat is Shailene, who was a winner on debut and built on that effort with a fourth in the Cheshire Oaks on her latest start. A reproduction of that performance gives her obvious claims, but preference is for the potential improvement of 260,000gns purchase FLORIA TOSCA. She ran with promise on debut at Nottingham two weeks ago over the mile, with today’s extra two furlongs a massive boost. She is entitled to improve majorly for the step up in trip and most of Luca Cumani’s horses come on for their debuts, so progression can be expected.
