In depth

Verdict

Fas Le Fios won a claimer in France back in April of last year and has her first start since. Nomorecalls hasn’t raced since June when a well beaten third at Ripon and Galloway Hills has the more recent form, though also failed to threaten when placed over track and trip in November. QUEEN OF DESIRE tired in the closing stages over 6f at Chelmsford on last month’s debut. But she wasn’t beaten that far by a horse rated 77 and this drop back to the minimum trip looks the logical move for Roger Varian’s filly.
