3.00 Newmarket
Shadwell Fillies' Mile (Group 1) (Class 1) (2YO only)
Winner £88,785
Advice: 1 pt win Lyric Of Light (2/1 general)
Albamara: Unlucky loser behind Godolphin newcomer on AW and
then romped home at Epsom next time (hard to tell if she had to improve to do
so), looking improved for the step up in trip; That form been let down since
though and far hardest rest here.
Devotion: Took time to get hang of things but looked useful
enough to compete at pattern level when running out ready all the way winner of
Leopardstown maiden; Soft ground possibly didn’t suit her but this too hard.
Fallen For You: Well backed on debut before winning
impressively, defying slow start and then being pushed out wide to come home
with some ease; That form working out well (runner-up Rhythmic has won well
since and third looked unlucky on her next start); Improved a little but still
immature when edged out of things by Fallen For You last time at Doncaster;
Reversal of that form not out of the question.
Firdaws: Progressed from taking debut (should have won after
a slow start, form is decent) and impressive considering she was drawn 18 out
of 18 at Salisbury when winning by a head (some would say she was workmanlike);
Step up in trip should bring her on a lot and has to be considered a major
player.
Lyric Of Light: Ran out a ready winner of Newmarket maiden
for team that holds a strong hand in this division and impressive when beating
Fallen For You latest, although she was a little wayward in edging opposing
runner up across the track; Did have clear superiority though even if just half
a length, and will take some stopping here.
Salford Art: Heavily interfered with when beaten by useful
filly two starts back and again had trouble with clear run when fifth over
C&D last time; This demands that she’s going to be 10lbs better than her
track position.
Samitar: Created god impression when running out Ready
winner of Albany Stakes, looking as if she would improve for experience/trip so
disappointing to see her caught (looked like non stayer) in sales race last
time; Acquitted herself well again but well held behind front two in May Hill
but that form’s unlikely to be reversed.
Semayyel: Never going early pace over 6 furlongs on debut
and like so many from stable, improved for that significantly when running out
fairly ready winner over 7f;Well held when fifth behind 3 protagonists latest
and while booking of title chasing Kieren Fallon catches the eye.
VERDICT: A solid renewal of the first renewal away from
Ascot. It’s very hard to split Fallen For You and LYRIC OF LIGHT but the winner
seemed to be idling just a bit and may confirm the form from last time. Firdaws
is expected to show up well on her first crack at this company thanks to a
longer trip.
