In depth
Verdict
Form here is notably weak but PACHARANA is the sort of filly likely to improve under the tutelage of Luca Cumani. Three maiden outings revealed little about the daughter of Oasis Dream but she displayed first specks of ability last time in a Bath handicap upped to middle-distances. She's done most of her work on the soft and hopefully can build upon recent improvement over quicker ground. A repeat of her Bath run would see her competitive anyway. My Mistress ran okay here in a seller last time and George Wood's claim will prove beneficial whilst both Overlord and Topalova have occasional pieces of form at this level to suggest they can get involved, although both seemed rather below par last time.
