There could be several nice fillies in this and the form may well be worth following in the months ahead. Iffraaj Pink is a half-sister to the smart Vale Of York and was very green on her debut at Kempton. French import Bousatet is one to watch in the betting while Mesmerized should be stronger this year. Royal Style was second at Newcastle earlier this month but we like the look of newcomers Beep and VALTINA with preference for the latter. She's closely related to several winners, including useful miler Prince d'Alienor, and the yard is adept at getting them ready at home.
