In depth
Verdict
Stagecoach Ruby a half sister to the useful French middle distance performer Seattle Savour is taken to score on her debut. She is from the Mark Johnston yard which is beginning to find it's form and she is bred to appreciate this fast ground. Miss Brookie rates the main danger she has experience on her side and was a fair third behind Beejay last time out and a reproduction of that effort would see him go close. Needles And Pins is from a yard that can ready a two-year-old and this well bred filly is one to note in the market. Obe Bold is another that would have chances on breeding and the market may prove the best guide as to what is expected. The remainder are bred to do better in time and they may be best watched on this occasion.
