Newmarket Race 2 - Betfred Dahlia Stakes (Fillies' And Mares' Group 2)

CINDERELLA'S DREAM (2) returns from a short break following a close head-second in the G2 Balanchine at Meydan where winner then followed-up attempting the G1 Jenny Wiley Stakes at Keeneland. Brings five wins from seven runs when paired with William Buick and poised for a bold bid. ELMALKA (3) was victorious in the 1000 Guineas over course and distance this time last year. Not beaten far in three subsequent G1 contests and rates a top contender with Silvestre De Sousa back on board. Former course winner RUNNING LION (4) was last seen just held in the G1 Prix De L'Opera at Longchamp during October and is one to take very seriously first-up. The Charlie Appleby-trained BEAUTIFUL LOVE (1) maintains each-way chances. Shortlist.
