In depth

Verdict

Wedding Vow is by Galileo out of a useful mare and though showing nothing on her debut in September she will have found the going much too fast. Brown Bee ran well enough in her last two races to suggest she'll be winning soon while Athassel Abbey didn't appear to take to the Polytrack after an encouraging debut at the Curragh. Mainicin should improve this season but the one to beat is ZANNDA, who could hardly have made a more encouraging debut having been beaten a short-head here in October.
