Pearl Secret filly. Raced prominently and looked green but did well enough to take 4L fifth on debut at Wolverhampton (6f). Down to the minimum trip with some place claims.

Placed in all three starts to date including when 1L second in Wolverhampton fillies' maiden (5f) at the end of July. Another bold show expected if up to that form.

Pivotal filly. Not hit the ground running in two starts, including when 7L sixth in 5f Sandown maiden four days ago. Quick turnaround but tough ask. One for handicapping in time.

Has seemed green in two starts to date and didn't take step forward from poor C&D debut when 8L seventh at Goodwood (5f) in June. Absent since. Needs more.

Kingman filly/ Half-sister to 1m4f winner Awesomedude. Dam was placed in Scandinavia and from the family of St Leger winner Kingston Hill. Yard 0-32 with juveniles this season so best watched.

£40,000 yearling. Was fancied to go well on debut but missed the break and was green when 13L fifth at Doncaster (6f) in June. Should do better in time.

4/7
Offers most experience in the field with five solid efforts already. Second behind smart sort at Newbury two starts ago before 1L third at Goodwood (6f) last month. Sets the form standard and leading claims.

Forecasts

Sarsaparilla (4/7), Black Sparrow (9/4), Belgium (10/1), King'slove (22/1), Isabella Swan (40/1), Livia The Empress (66/1), Celestial Point (66/1)

Verdict

John Gosden's two-year-olds have shown a tendency to take time to come to themselves this term and one who looks ready for the next step up is SARSPARILLA. She ran well behind the ill-fated Fly Miss Helen two starts ago and her recent third over 6f suggests this trip might actually be her optimum, she should make her experience count. Black Sparrow has done nothing wrong in three starts but this resembles another step up in company but should give an honest account, while the duo of Livia The Empress and Belgium were caught out by inexperience on their debuts and should be more streetwise this time around.
  1. Sarsaparilla
  2. Black Sparrow
  3. Livia The Empress
