Formscan - GHOST STORY left a low-key debut effort well behind when scoring gamely over 1m2f at Nottingham second time up and, after shaping like she was still in good nick when finishing a solid third over this trip at Kempton last time, the daughter of Waldgeist gets the vote to make a winning handicap debut. Molinari caught the eye when finishing a never-nearer second over 1m2f here last week and a bold showing is anticipated stepping back up in trip off an unchanged mark. Recent Goodwood winner Clever Relation is also one for the shortlist.
