Verdict
The Frankel filly WILD BEAUTY started favourite for her debut at Ascot though couldn't go the pace but showed the benefit with a smooth victory over an extra furlong on soft ground at Haydock. She has a penalty but looks one to follow. River Pride put a moderate debut on Tapeta behind her with a cracking effort at Doncaster where she had a sustained battle with Allayaali, who prevailed by a short-head. Tadita Twitch caught the eye on fast going at Lingfield and will improve while Roger Charlton's horses are going well and Moon Island has a very smart pedigree and should be ideally suited by the trip on her debut.
