Mehmas first foal of a 7f 2yo winner (RPR 88); 1-2 for her first appearance in a six-runner maiden at Newcastle (7f, AW) in November and she led over 1f out for a clearcut win; promising.
Second in her three starts, all over 7f at Chelmsford (AW) and from the front on first two occasions; should play a major role if okay on turf.
150-1, beaten 18l in a newcomers race at Newmarket (1m, good) two weeks ago; should improve but hard to fancy just yet.
475,000gns yearling by Dark Angel; 9-2, slowly away and never dangerous when about 8l sixth of eight in maiden at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last July; that's all that was seen of her as a 2yo but she did show some promise.
75,000gns yearling by Starman; weak 12-1 for maiden at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in November, chasing the all-the-way winner over 4f before fading into last of four (all from major stables); could be a big improver this season, which she needs to be; market may guide.
300,000euros yearling by St Mark's Basilica; tenth of 11 when 33-1 for a novice at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) in November but she showed promise to be in touch for 4f and could be the type to do a lot better.
