Verdict
Felicity has been expensive to follow but looks to have been found the ideal opportunity to open her account with the only danger looking to be the newcomer Prideyev. The selection has run well in defeat in all four starts this term, latterly when third behind Uraib at Kempton and a reproduction of any of her efforts this season should suffice. Prideyev is bred to be useful, being by Nureyev out of a Secretariat mare, but the Amanda Perrett stable does not have many first time out winners. Michael Chapman's Ashtaroute makes her British debut having shown ability in two starts in France and is difficult to evaluate. The likelihood is that she will find at least one too good. Little Englander gave little sign of encouragement on his Leicester debut and is difficult to fancy in a race that should go to Felicity.
