Snappy can put her experience to good use here and once again advertise the solid form of the Brocklesby this year. She finished eighth in that race, making good late headway after a slow start, and was far from disgraced when a close third on her only subsequent start at Southwell. A line through Parisian Elegance gives her the advantage over Auntie Dot Com, who was unfancied for her debut on the all-weather, while of the newcomers the booking of Kevin Darley catches the eye for Princess Sofie, who looks to be the pick of Tim Easterby's two runners. It may be worth noting any market strength for John Quinn's Northern Tara, a 26,000 Guineas yearling whose stable produced a nicely backed juvenile winner at Ripon last week. Alan Berry has had three juvenile winners this season so far, so a similar remark could apply to the cheaply-bought Galaxy Jewel.
