Verdict
DRAKARIS was well held when filling second place on her racecourse debut over C&D a month ago and Dan Skelton's filly looks sure to improve for that experience. With that in mind, she gets the vote over Eskylady, who was bought for 260,000 pounds after winning an Irish point in October. Elderflower Tonic and Red Wine Supernova are others to note.
