Tuesday’s French banker of the day is a filly who looks set to show improvement following an eye-catching debut…

Dispatches (Andre Fabre/Cristian Demuro)

Saint-Cloud – R2 – Prix Ravinella

- Well-bred daughter of Frankel

- Caught the eye on debut

- Should improve for her initial experience

Dispatches went straight into the tracker as a surefire future winner following her eye-catching debut fifth at Deauville last month.

A well-bred daughter of Frankel, who is out a Dansilli mare and carries the colours of Juddmonte, Dispatches shaped as though she had bundles of ability when fifth on debut, travelling kindly before being short of room at a crucial stage late on. There's no doubt her best may come over further, but it was tough not to be impressed with how she was lengthening her stride late on and I'd be surprised if she didn't take a big step forward for that initial experience.

The re-opposing Tickle, who filled the runner-up spot in that Deauville maiden, enjoyed a much clearer passage in the final furlong and although she's also intitled to improve, I'm not sure she holds the same size and scope as the Andre Fabre-trained filly.
