Newmarket Race 4 - Betfred 1000 Guineas Stakes (Fillies' Group 1)
The undefeated DESERT FLOWER (2) launched her last campaign with a debut win here and progressed nicely in three subsequent runs culminating in a conclusive 5L course and distance victory attempting the G1 Fillies Mile. Poised for a strong return and set to take beating. LAKE VICTORIA (7) is another top class filly who remains unbeaten after five starts including a G1 Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf triumph when last seen in November. Major player. RED LETTER (8) finished fourth behind the just mentioned attempting the G1 Moyglare Stud Stakes at Curragh. Open to plenty of improvement after eight month hiatus. DUTY FIRST (3) impressed attempting the G3 Fred Darling Stakes at Newbury. Big threat racing second-up.
