UK P2P review: There is plenty of stamina in this filly's family, and she used it to good effect when winning a point-to-point bumper at Ffos Las. Taking a prominent early position she moved to the lead on the final bend, where she was joined by a fancied rival for a battle down the long home straight. Having seen him off another challenger appeared, and once again, although headed, she came back under hands and heels riding to win by a length. It was a fine effort into a headwind by a filly making her racing debut, and she is a big, strong, deep mare who stands 16.2hh and is bound to improve for her debut experience. Her sire no longer needs any introduction, and while her dam showed little in a handful of runs she is a half-sister to five winners under Rules and to a point-to-point winner. Those siblings include the Welsh Grand National winner Sir Rembrandt, who was twice placed in the Cheltenham Gold Cup, and also to the winning chaser and Gr.2-placed hurdler Audacter.
