Verdict
Here To Me is likely to be at short odds for the opener on the Sandown card and is difficult to oppose with Truly Wonderful expected to get the better of Perfect Distance for the forecast spot. Richard Hannon, who has his juvenile string in good form, trains the selection and this daughter of Muhtarram should be too good for her rivals if able to reproduce the form she showed when second at Epsom last time. The half-sister to Wedgewood Star just failed to stay the six furlongs that day and should be suited by the drop to the minimum trip. Mick Channon's recent Carlisle second Truly Wonderful rates the main danger ahead of Perfect Distance. Brian Meehan's filly has shown a consistent level of form in all three of her starts so far but is again likely to have to settle for a minor role. Morgan Lewis and Nebraska City are worthy of a mention but it will be a surprise if this does not go to the Hannon filly Here To Me, who gets the vote.
