Nottingham Race 1 - European Breeders Fund Ebf Fillies' Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
A very disappointing turnout for this fillies novice event. It's difficult to split the pair which may go the way of the experienced ROOTS IN TOUCHE (2) who provided a positive debut performance in the Hilary Needler Trophy at Beverley (1000m). Failed to match that form when beaten 7L fourth subsequently at Catterick. Can find a race of this nature. Her sole opponent is the speedily-bred FUNKY DORY (1) who represents the Karl Burke stable. Their juveniles always deserve respect and the Dandy Man filly who is a first foal from a 1000m first-start winner is sure to deliver a bold performance first up.

First-starter by Dandy Man out of Funchal. Looks good enough to prevail against limited opposition.

Raced twice to date. At big odds at debut, ran on strongly from last on the turn; 2nd of 8 at Beverley on May 30 over 1000m, 1.3 len behind Crystal Queen with 56.5kg at $29. Last start 4th of 8 at Catterick on June 22 over 1000m, 7 len behind Minzelle carrying 58kg at $3. Sure to be competitive with so few opponents.
