Verdict

Time To Blossom will almost certainly improve on her debut second at Goodwood. Kempton fifth Electrify is another with plenty of scope but Cape Peninsular came up short again at Wolverhampton earlier this month and this looks an above-average maiden for the track. ENTSAR was only beaten half-a-length on her all-weather debut at Chelmsford. The winner, behind Cape Peninsular earlier, boosted the form when successful in a handicap off a mark of 80 subsequently and William Haggas' filly looks the one to beat here as Godolphin's Howilat has been well beaten in both runs to date.
