BOATER beat little to land the odds at Kempton on her debut but did so by seven lengths and Mark Johnston’s filly should make a bold bid in this on that evidence. Stormy Clouds also won well at Salisbury last time and there should be more to come from her bidding for a hat-trick. Coolfitch and Twizzell made winning starts at Ripon and Beverley respectively and Perfect Madge showed promise when runner-up at Newmarket on her introduction. Amlak, Mightaswellsmile and Vona could all go well with normal progress.
