Comments in running

Aromatherapy chased leaders, went 2nd over 2f out, challenged over 1f out, pushed into lead inside final furlong, ran on well

Tableau Vivant led for 1f, chased leader after until led again over 2f, ridden and hard pressed over 1f out, headed inside final furlong, one pace

Illusion went badly right leaving stalls, hung right throughout and raced wide, headway to lead after 1f, headed over 2f out, kept on same pace final furlong

Totem Flower held up in midfield, headway to chase leading trio over 2f out, no impression from over 1f out

Dolcetto held up in rear, headway 4f out, kept on steadily but never dangerous

Mignonette hampered start, behind, some headway last 2f, never on terms

Spiritofthestorm took keen hold, chased leaders, ridden 3f out, weakened over 2f out

Sabancaya went right start, raced in midfield, ridden 4f out, lost touch well over 2f out

Let Me Pass chased leaders for 2f, soon dropped towards rear, well behind and swished tail 2f out

Nisbah bumped start, always in rear, no chance last 2f, eased inside final furlong

Bunty Malenoir soon outpaced in last, tailed off from 3f out




Analyis of the race

This fillies' maiden was run at a good clip thanks to Illusion, but AROMATHERAPY, who shaped with so much promise on her debut last year, was always in a good position, stalking the leaders. Although she disappointed on her second start last year, tacky ground was to blame at Redcar and, having done well over the winter, she proved that run all wrong.

She might get 1m2f in time but the key to her is a sound surface, especially back on turf.

Tableau Vivant confirmed the promise of her Wolverhampton debut, as she was always racing on the pace before staying on strongly up the straight.

Totem Flower put behind her a disappointing effort at Folkestone in September, keeping on steadily from off the pace without ever really threatening to challenge.

Dolcetto shaped as though the penny was beginning to drop in the closingstages and, with this experience under her belt, should step up next time.
