Easy fillies maiden juvenile plate winner last month when hitting the target for the first time here over 5f (had Arctic Commander back in fourth); she's worth a go

Dam did get her head in front; yard among the winners with newcomers in recent seasons; inexperience a possible drawback so she could be one for another day

Verdict

Heirloom is capable of running well while Ice Star, with few miles on the clock, could be capable of better. But GLOBAL THUNDER looks set for a big run. She has won at this track and is expected to confirm authority with Arctic Commander after they met 21 days ago.
