Qilin Queen
Qilin Queen
17th-May-2025
We had Qilin Queen on side when she finished third in the Pretty Polly Stakes at Newmarket on her debut this season, and a lot of the reasons for backing her there hold true today.
Time may prove that she faced an arduous task in taking on Falakeyah, and she only just missed out on the runner-up spot. She was on her toes in the preliminaries that day, and she was keen through the early stages of the race, so she did well to keep on as well as she did. She was fastest of all through the final four furlongs and through the final furlong.
I was hoping that she would step up in trip to a mile and a half, I think there is further progress to come from her when she does step up in trip, but she should get a good test at 10 furlongs here, and that should suit her well too. If she can settle a little better than she did at Newmarket last time, she could take a nice step forward.
QILIN QUEEN WON (ADV 4/1, SP 18/5)
