Formscan  - The drop back in distance is likely to see Greek Gift in a better light with her proven form on a softer surface another positive, while Captivate and Law Degree shouldn't be discounted. However, the vote goes to BLESSED STAR. Charlie Johnston's filly has filled the runner-up spot in novice company on all three starts to date and an opening mark of 77 may underestimate her true ability on nursery debut.
