Verdict

SNOWING showed much improved form when third in a listed race here last month and, having faced a tough ask in a Newmarket Group 1 since, she looks to hold leading claims back in maiden company. Sensational Filly shaped promisingly on debut and is next on the list, while Taranga makes plenty of appeal on paper.
