Verdict

LADY GEMINI ran well behind the likes of Waady and Flaming Spear last season when also thought of sufficient standard to contest the Group 2 Lowther Stakes won by Tiggy Wiggy. Her absence is a concern but that form definitely sets the standard here. Jillanar shaped quite well on her first run for three months in the decent Hamilton maiden won by Postulant and seems sure to pick up a maiden contest this term whilst Scent Of Summer has to overcome an absence back to late autumn last year but is the sole William Haggas runner on the card and commands great respect. She showed plenty in two all-weather starts last term and it would be no surprise if she starts making up for lost time now.
