Verdict
None of these have raced on testing ground as yet, although FRAY stands out on form. She never threatened the winner over a mile here on her racecourse debut but a subsequent winner has already come out of the race. Dark Reality, Maracuja and Wunderkind are others likely to have improved from their recent introductions, but Stybba has shown little in either start so far. Saltwater Creek, Archduchess and Eastern Belle have middle-distance pedigrees though fellow newcomer Tipsy Star is more speedily-bred and is also worth noting.
