Verdict
FLOWING CLARETS made a winning start at Leicester with something to spare. Richard Fahey's filly gets the vote ahead of another maiden winner in Parkour. The latter scored over track and trip last time and is upped 5lb while the more exposed pair Rockley Point and Broughtons Fancy have both been placed off similar marks in handicaps before. Illegally Blonde was well ahead of King Of Swing when scoring over 5f at Nottingham recently and Satin Chic went close over today's distance at Ayr last time.
