Intikhab filly, who even allowing for the race being her debut, could only be described as a disappointment at Ayr (1m2f soft) last month. She dwelt and whilst regaining her position was soon back-peddling from 3f from home and finished a distant last of four to Paradise Cove.
In rear on both starts to date, and was only plugging on to finish sixth to Intellect at Nottingham (1m2f soft) just under a fortnight ago. Tries an AW surface for her third career start.
Cost 52,000 gns as a yearling, but this daughter of Exchange Rate weakened to finish tenth of 12 to Great White Shark at Doncaster recently (1m2f+ soft). Probably capable of better on a less demanding surface.
Probably didn't stay 1m4f in a Group 3 contest at Chantilly last month, but her earlier form in maidens is head and shoulders above the fillies in this contest to have raced, and should be off the mark at the fourth attempt.
Daughter of New Approach (out of Fann) who cost 100,000 gns as a yearling. Makes her debut at a realistic level and this sister to 7f juvenile winner Future Empire looks the chief threat to Glittering Jewel.
Cost just £600 as a yearling, and impossible to think she'll be capable of winning this judged upon that sales price and her form in two starts to date. Waiting for a handicap mark.
€52,000 yearling who on pedigree should need a trip. Never in the hunt on debut at Wetherby (1m soft) after dwelling, and paid the price late on for setting a strong pace when upped to 1m2f at Chelmsford last month when sixth of eleven to Distant.
Forecasts
Glittering Jewel (1/9), Jafetica (9/2), Chocolate Account (25/1), Xylophone (25/1), Princess Ophelia (40/1), Alfa Queen (80/1), Artic Nel (100/1)
Unless the unraced Jafetica is out of the ordinary, this race looks cherry ripe for the taking by the Charlie Appleby trained GLITTERING JEWEL. She didn't appear to stay in Group 3 company in France on her latest start, but her May 1m2f Ascot second to subsequent Ribblesdale Stakes runner up Mori is on a whole different level to what the others have achieved during their relatively short careers, and in truth she should be a steering job for Will Buick.
