Verdict
AN CHULAINN is by far the most experienced filly running in this but she has some very decent form, notably when third to Vallado in a valuable auction race at the Curragh in August. Mark Johnston has won a division of this for the past two seasons and the daughter of Tamayuz sets a fair standard. Amaseena, Maria Bella and Weekend Getaway are all likely to improve for promising first efforts while Dark Reality, Joys of Spring and Wintour Leap are all newcomers worth noting if the market speaks in their favour.
