Verdict

QUISANA sets the standard according to official ratings and could be tough to deal with if taking another step forward. The daughter of Ghaiyyath had other options this week and the hint is taken that connections assume this is the most suitable route for her to break her maiden. Moonlit Surf, Yimmna and Aura Champagne are potential improvers to monitor closely in the betting market.

Top Tip: Quisana (5)
Watch out for: Moonlit Surf (2)

A good novice where the standard is probably set by Aura Champagne on her latest run behind a pair of useful rivals. However she needs to prove she can be as effective back over this shorter trip so YIMMNA is preferred. Her latest runner up effort has been boosted emphatically by the winner and she will enjoy the fast surface. The experienced Quisana may have been a bit flattered by her latest run but would also hold a chance if settling.
