The form of BAISER INTERDIT’s second at Pau in December was franked when the third just came up short next time at Auteuil. She looks a nice prospect and my prove too strong for Emma Lamb, who has ability but isn’t really progressing. Takingitallin has won a point and boasts useful bumper form around here so can’t be ignored but it’s difficult to make a case for any of the others.
