Several have a shout but NATIONAL TREASURE finished no less than nine lengths clear of the rest when third at Newmarket on her debut and the runner-up has subsequently won. The Godolphin filly gets the vote on that form though Tanita was beaten less than a length when ahead of Run Wild over track and trip on her debut and has to be considered. Virgin Snow showed some promise when fourth at Doncaster on her introduction while Night Colours and Royal Nation are newcomers to note.
