Bred to want a bit further than this, but stands out in this modest bunch having finished fourth in a much better race last time (runner-up rated 80). Hard to oppose but the odds may be prohibitive.
Well beaten at lengthy odds in both starts to date. First run on turf but doubtful that will make a difference.

Highcastle finished third in what was probably the worst novice event of the year and, with the exception of AMBER STAR, this would be weaker still. The selection is beautifully bred and showed all the right signs at Thirsk last time when making smooth progress only to finish fourth behind some smart looking fillies. That run alone would be enough to earn a mark in the low 70s and gives her plenty in hand of today's rivals.
