Foaled February 3. €20,000 yearling, 60,000 gns 2-y-o. Saxon Warrior filly. Failed to match market expectations when fifth of 10 in a novice at Kempton (6f) on debut 8 days ago, though she showed ability from a poor draw. More to come.

Second foal, half-sister to useful French 1m (including at 2 yrs) winner Eponine. Dam, French 1m winner, half-sister to very smart winner up to 7f Baccarat out of useful 2-y-o 7f winner Zut Alors. Lot to like on paper for powerful stable (has a Group 2 entry).

Timeform Verdict
Those wth experience do not set an exacting standard so ETONNANTE, a newcomer from a successful family (including at 2 yrs) could well be up to the job representing a leading stable. Lady Branksome was better than she could show at Kempton so she's expected to take a step forward, with well-connected debutante Sovereign Beach also of interest.
Betting Forecast
9/2 Fern Clyde, 50/1 Suzie May, 11/1 Bladey Lady (Ire), 7/2 Lady Branksome (Ire), 11/4 Etonnante (Ire), 4/1 Sovereign Beach (Ire), 14/1 Aura Of Melania
