In depth
Verdict
Rozalia has placed in both starts so far and should be in the mix once again as that’s the strongest form of those with experience. Combine finished ahead of Najima at Newbury though both finished down the field and You're So Vain finished last of eight at the same track on her debut. Both newcomers are worthy of a second glance with Prismatic related to three winners but SERENGETI STAR is a half-sister to St Leger winner Encke as well as a Group 3 winner and Mark Johnston’s filly may prove good enough on her debut.
