In depth
Verdict
With only a 3lb penalty for winning easily at Chepstow, Shepherd Market shouldn’t be far away again even though that form hasn’t worked out. But AIM OF ARTEMIS, a half-sister to her stable’s multiple Listed winner Abingdon, is going to relish this extra furlong after a staying-on third at Newbury and is fancied to open her account today. Hula Girl looks held on Newbury running while Tivoli may need further on the evidence of a couple of runs at Newmarket. Ziarah wasn’t disgraced stepping up to 7f at HQ last time, however, and the second has won since. Preening is a half-sister to three winners so could be a newcomer to note.
