Verdict

The market should provide the best guide to these newcomers as it did last year when Nina Carberry was successful. She rides Moonlight Escape for Gordon Elliott this time and her mount is likely to come in for support as she's a half-sister to the useful King's Lad. The stable also run TURANGA LILLY, who looks a more likely winner on her breeding. She's by Flemensfirth out of a mare who has produced six winners with her first seven offspring including several on the Flat. Ifandbutwhen is a half-brother to five winners while Sally Park is a half-brother to two winning bumpers and out of a winner so he could be decent.
