Verdict

RESEMBLANCE still looks on a handy mark following a comfortable success at Ffos Las and she may well follow up. Pure Majesty is an interesting nursery debutant given her pedigree/connections, while Koodini makes each-way appeal in a race where several are unproven on the ground.

2	Best effort in novice/maiden races when runner-up in a good 6f race here in May. More than built on that promise when winning in fine style on nursery debut/return at Ffos Las (6f, soft) latest. Didn't look short of speed that day and capable of defying a 5 lb rise if she stays the longer trip. 1st Pick 2 Resemblance (Ire) Jockey: Hector Crouch Trainer: Michael Bell J: Hector Crouch T: Michael Bell	100	-	-	-	42%

7	300,000 gns State of Rest filly who appeals on paper/looks. Hasn't progressed on the face of things following a fairly promising debut at Newmarket in July. In excellent hands, though, and switch to longer trip/nursery may well see her in a better light. 2nd Pick 7 Pure Majesty (Ire) Jockey: Tom Marquand Trainer: William Haggas J: Tom Marquand T: William Haggas	92	-	-	-	25%

6	Ground-versatile sort. Opened his account in a small-field Catterick nursery prior to a creditable fourth over C&D last month. Easy enough to overlook subsequent Chester run (poorly drawn) and back on his winning mark as a result. Makes each-way appeal. 3rd Pick 6 Koodini (Ire) Jockey: Joe Leavy Trainer: Hugo Palmer J: Joe Leavy T: Hugo Palmer	95	-	-	-	5%
