Desert Belle (F)
FAV
Masar filly. Closely related to smart winner up to 10.2f Dubai Icon and half-sister to 1m/9f winner Queen of Cordoba and 8.4f/9f winner Haya. Makes obvious paper appeal.

Sharp Romance (F)
2,500 gns foal. Advertise filly half-sister to winner up to 1¼m Charming Whisper and 8.7f winner Mister Phoenix. Dam 1½m winner out of useful 2-y-o 6f winner So Belle. The betting should help guide to expectations.

| 3rd | 8 | 2 |
Sovereign Bright (F)
Fair maiden. Bit below par when fifth of 9 in novice at Kempton (7f) on final 2-y-o start. Prominent showing likely if reproducing the pick of last year's form on reappearance.
