Verdict
Hi Clare finished runner-up at Pontefract last time though that wasn’t much of an improvement on her earlier debut while Violeta placed at Thirsk without threatening the winner. Alpine Girl is a likely improver but a chance is taken on QUEEN ME, the second foal of a Group 2 winner and a half-sister to winning stablemate Alia Choice. Serenity Rose and Maggie's Tern are other newcomers to note.
