Verdict

FIRST EXPERIENCE faced higher rated horses than this when only fourth in a novice event last month. She'd earlier taken care of Bon Port over track and trip and the latter has since advertised the form with a course and distance victory of her own. Rae Guest's filly is taken to come out best again, though Bint Malyana is another course winner having landed her maiden here in November and is preferred to the more exposed duo Howz The Family and the frustrating Kodafine.
