Robbie Wilders' play of the day at Salisbury
Xiomara
5.07 Salisbury
Xiomara arrives with excellent claims for David Menuisier in the 1m2f fillies' handicap.
Xiomara, a daughter of Lope De Vega whose dam landed the Galtres Stakes at York, served notice of the fact her opening mark of 75 looked on the lenient side when an excellent second at Nottingham on her handicap debut last time.
Still slightly raw, this three-year-old came from further back than better-positioned older winner Elladonna, who knew more on her fourth try in a handicap and will have her work cut out confirming those placings off 4lb worse terms.
Xiomara can be relied upon to build on that experience and the first three were six lengths clear of the fourth, with the third going close next time to give the form a solid look. The selection is up 1lb and a first success is on the cards if she can race more professionally.
