Verdict
Rosby Waves is a half-sister to Grade 1 winners in America including Breeders' Cup Turf hero Johar and she makes more appeal than fellow newcomers Valiant Bee and Chocolate Pursuits. She could certainly prove good enough on her debut, but INFORTUAL showed enough on her first start when third at Lingfield to suggest she can win one of these and Marco Botti's filly gets the nod. Moorside Magic produced a much better effort when fourth over C&D last time and she's preferred to Roundelay and Tooley Woods, who were both soundly beaten on their respective debuts.
