Betty F, a Sept. 29 G2 Rockfel S. and Sept. 30 G1 Cheveley Park S. entry, was well away to race in fifth after the initial strides of this unveiling. Angled into open runway soon after passing the quarter-mile marker, the 5-2 favourite was sent in pursuit of previous winner Rockies Spirit (GB) (Swiss Spirit {GB}) at the foot of the hill and quickened in impressive fashion on the climb to the line to inhale that rival hard on the steel in the dying strides for a taking 3/4-of-a-length success. The homebred chestnut, kin to a yearling filly by Dansili (GB), is the first representative for former Jeremy Noseda stable incumbent and G3 Oak Tree S. placegetter Instance (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), herself a half-sister to G1 British Champions Fillies & Mares-winning European highweight Seal of Approval (GB) (Authorized {Ire}) and Listed Prix Denisy victress Gale Force (GB) (Shirocco {Ger}), from a family which features last term’s G1 Epsom Derby and G1 Irish Derby hero Harzand (Ire) (Sea the Stars {Ire}). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $5,833.
