Blue Bahia did well to finish third behind Hyzenthlay at Navan eight days ago considering she missed the break. She looks a sure-fire future winner but has the Ballydoyle battalions to contend with here. HOW has a cracking pedigree being a full sister to the dual Group 1 winner Minding and is fancied to have too much for stablemates Roly Poly and Brave Anna with Ana O'Brien claiming 3lb. Gone To Russia may prove the pick of David Wachman's pair while Ribbons 'n' Roses and Velveteen should be other fillies to follow in the months ahead.
