FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Lowther Stakes runner-up CHERRY BLOSSOM looks the one to beat now that the Aidan O'Brien-trained filly tackles a sales race for the first time. Fourth at Naas in a Listed race on her initial outing, the daughter of No Nay Never stepped up on that effort to easily win her maiden at this track next time. Having run a huge race when stepped up into group company at York, she looks as though this additional furlong should suit. Storm Miami finished just in front of Cherry Blossom in the aforementioned Naas race but had the advantage of a previous run. While there is unlikely to be much between that pair now, her rival may just have improved past her. Do It With Style has been highly tried since winning his maiden here back in May. He is another who should find this easier than recent assignments.
