Verdict
Aigiarne never threatened when third at Chelmsford but is still likely to figure and Any Smile has a shout on her debut fourth at Kempton. But J’OUVERT was unlucky to come up against the progressive Godolphin filly Orchid Star, who has subsequently won again, on her latest start at Chelmsford and David Simcock’s filly can go one better in this. Nabeyla and Honey Bear are preferred to Whims Of Desire of the newcomers.
