DHAFEERA showed potential in two starts in France and was making her all-weather debut over a shorter trip here a month ago when just failing to hold Massa Lubrense. With that under her belt and a more suitable trip, she can go one better. The more-experienced Curly Girl finished sixth in that latter event and looks held as does fourth-placed Wooster, the highest rated of these, who has changed stables. Pivotal Connection ran well enough in her two starts over track and trip last month to suggest she'll be getting off the mark soon and Eddie Lynam's Suntory Times is related to several winners and may prove best of the newcomers.
