FormscanBy Gary Carson - Better ground and a drop in trip should suit CHERRY BLOSSOM. The No Nay Never filly had some very strong juvenile form, finishing second in Group 2 company and a fine fourth in the Cheveley Park Stakes. She failed to make much impression over seven in heavy ground on her return at Leopardstown and it looks significant that connections revert to sprinting now. Navassa Island ran a solid race when fifth to Givemethebeatboys on her return at Navan just under two weeks ago and could be the danger now. Heart Of Darkness was value for a bit more than her winning margin in a Dundalk maiden last month and is a potential improver.
For three years old fillies only that are EBF eligible
Weights - 9st 2lbs
Penalties - Winner of a Group 3 race 3lb extra Of a Group 2 race or a Group 1 race 5lb extra
