Kings Joy¹⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: L Dettori| T: J & T Gosden| D

8/1

Overcame a couple with an experience edge to make a winning start on the all-weather at Lingfield in December, knuckling down well to lead final 1f. One of 2 for the Gosden team and she's sure to progress.

Mukaddamah⁸⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Jim Crowley| T: R Varian

3/1

New Approach filly who overcame unfavourable circumstances to make a winning debut at Wolverhampton in January, staying on to lead final 100 yds after a very slow start. In excellent hands, she's open to significant improvement.

Form: 1

Queenlet¹⁸⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| D

5/1

Inexperience evident when ninth in a Newmarket maiden in October but much more clued up just 15 days later when landing minor event at Newbury (8f, heavy). Half-sister to one who was useful and she's likely to develop along similar lines.

Form: 91-

Star From Afarhh²²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: James Doyle| T: A M Balding| OR: 83

8/1

Farhh filly who won in workmanlike fashion on debut at Newmarket (7f). Unable to justify second favouritism when last in Solario Stakes next start and not up to the task when last of 4 in a similar race to this on her final 2021 start. Others appeal more.

Form: 164-

Eternal Pearl^h1

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby

10/3

700,000 gns yearling, Frankel filly. Half-sister to 1½m-1¾m winner True Courage. Dam, 1m winner, closely related to smart 7f winner Pearls Galore. Hood a slight concern but she's one to take seriously for red-hot connections on debut.

Grande Dame

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: R L Moore| T: J & T Gosden

3/1

105,000 gns yearling, Lope De Vega filly. Half-sister to useful winner up to 1m Blyton. Dam, unraced, closely related to smart winner up to 1m Tell. One of 2 for the Gosden team and market check advised.

Grande Dame (3/1), Mukaddamah (3/1), Eternal Pearl (10/3), Queenlet (5/1), Kings Joy (8/1), Star From Afarhh (8/1)

MUKADDAMAH looked a lot better than the bare form achieved on the day when making a winning start at Wolverhampton 3 months ago, leading late on having fluffed her lines at the start. She's in excellent hands, is open to significant progress, and can maintain her unbeaten record. Charlie Appleby is in scintillating form even by his lofty standards and his debutante Eternal Pearl merits serious consideration, with Queenlet third on the list.
