In depth
Verdict
A half-sister to three winners up to a mile, SARSAPARILLA also hails from a yard that’s been firing in the winners and she may have more pace than the Mark Johnston entry Monza City at this stage of their careers. Golden Melody is related to a host of winners but 6f will be on the short side judged on her pedigree. Star Of Emaraaty and Scarlet Bear are worth a market check, however.
