Verdict

Star From Afarhh finished last in both subsequent starts after making a winning debut at Newmarket last July but Queenlet stepped up considerably on her first run when scoring at Newbury in October and she may prove the pick of the four with experience ahead of January’s Wolverhampton winner Mukaddamah and Kings Joy, who may not have beaten much at Lingfield over the winter. The latter’s stable also run the unraced Grande Dame but fellow newcomer ETERNAL PEARL makes most appeal. She does sport headgear but is bred to be smart, being by Frankel out of a Listed winner in France, and cost 700,000gns as a yearling.
