RAE Guest's My Emma, unraced since creating a 29 to 1 upset in the Prix Vermeille last September, makes her seasonal debut in the Group Two Prix Maurice de Neuil at Maisons-Laffitte tomorrow over an extended 12 furlongs.
My Emma (Darryll Holland) is joined in her Gallic quest by Robert Armstrong's easy winner of the Fred Archer Stakes, Kutta.
Not that the British duo will have it easy, especially as My Emma is burdened by a penalty for her Group One Vermeille success.
She will have to concede 3lb to the very useful Surgeon, who is coming off an excellent second to Steward in the Group Two Grand Prix de Chantilly.
