NIGHTBLOOM, a smart pedigree buy at 400,000 euros and a near relative of a smart sprinter, looks capable of opening her account and is preferred to VIKING BARBIE, who has taken steady steps forward across three runs and was placed at Sandown last time. DESERT MOVE ranks next in threat, with more expected than his debut suggested given his pedigree, while BATTLE FEVER also has obvious appeal on breeding for a yard adept at readying newcomers. AUTUMN JEWEL, having taken benefit from a Musselburgh debut, and WAITING FOR ARCHIE, with experience from starts at Thirsk and Leicester, add depth without threatening the principals. NIGHTBLOOM's pedigree and profile make her the type to open her account, and she's our selection.
