Debut winner over 1600m and confirmed that promise with a good 2nd in her next start (both at Saint-Cloud). Fluffhed lines when only 10th in a 1400m Listed race at Deauville on 7 July - shouldn't be hastily condemned

Race Overview
ROSHVAR (2) hasn't quite fulfilled expectations, albeit in stronger/Group races, but remains undeniably capable of winning a race like this (Class 2). He will, however, have to thwart the likely challenge of improving last-start scorer EVERGREEN (4) who won with a bit in hand at Vichy. SCHIKERIA (6) blotted her copybook in a 1400m Listed race but shouldn't be underestimated. She will enjoy reverting to 1600m and is open to improvement in just her fourth outing. GALAXIE VEGA (5) is still a maiden but ought to make her presence felt in receipt of weight from those rivals.

2 - 4 - 6
