In depth
Verdict
HOT NATURED made a promising start when narrowly beaten over track and trip last month and should make a bold bid with normal progress. Lady Hester is steadily improving though never threatened when third at Wolverhampton last time while Sulafah separated a couple of modest efforts with a second at Newmarket in October. Fiendish is a half-sister to a Graded winner in North America and Eyes On Asha is the first foal of a Listed winner and that pair make most appeal of the newcomers.
