Verdict

ROOTS IN TOUCHE showed plenty of ability when runner-up in a good race at Beverley on debut and she sets the standard, though Minzelle appeals as the type to improve considerably given how well she went for a long way at Haydock. Calef can complete the 1-2-3.

6	€9,000 foal, £70,000 yearling, £165,000 2-y-o. Dandy Man filly. Showed greenness early but eventually produced a highly-promising debut effort when second of 8 in the Hilary Needler at Beverley (5f, good to firm, 28/1) on debut 23 days ago. Sets the standard on that effort. 1st Pick 6 Roots In Touche (Ire) Jockey: M. P. Sheehy Trainer: Adrian Keatley J: M. P. Sheehy T: Adrian Keatley	100	-	-	-	39%

4	€85,000 foal, 450,000 gns yearling, Minzaal filly. Very well backed ahead of debut and shaped much better than the bare result when third of 9 in a maiden at Haydock (6f, good to soft, 11/10) last month, tanking along in front until weakening in the final 1f. Should make considerable progress. 2nd Pick 4 Minzelle (Ire) Jockey: Clifford Lee Trainer: K. R. Burke J: Clifford Lee T: K. R. Burke	89	-	-	-	63%

2	180,000 gns Blue Point filly stepped up plenty on her debut when fourth of 7 in novice at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 19 days ago, showing plenty of speed but again being found wanting for know-how at the business end. Should progress further. 3rd Pick 2 Calef (Ire) Jockey: Daniel Tudhope Trainer: David O'meara J: Daniel Tudhope T: David O'meara	85	-	-	-	10%
