In depth

Verdict

FASHION INSIDER looks the pick of these and is preferred to Pursestrings. Brian Meehan's filly was a good fourth on her debut in a decent Newmarket maiden behind Revered when unfancied in the betting at 20/1. She is open to plenty of improvement after that encouraging beginning and even a repeat of that bare form would be enough to take this race. Gifted Apakay and Mater Mater will both be qualified for handicaps after this run so a bigger danger may be newcomer Kleio. A daughter of Sadler's Wells, she is a half-sister to a Group One winner over in France and is an obvious player if the betting agrees. Chief Wren and Concorde Kiss are both related to plenty of winners, albeit the majority over further than a mile, whilst Sasheen and Qaraqum didn't shape with an abundance of promise on their all-weather debuts. Of more interest then is Pursestrings who is another who needs to improve but she is likely to step up massively on her first run at Kempton. She is a half-sister to juvenile winners and should go well from a good draw. This looks a good opportunity for Fashion Insider to get off the mark.
