Iffraaj filly who made a winning start in 13-runner maiden at Chelmsford City (7f, 13/2) 6 months ago. Open to improvement on her seasonal return.

Venetian Gold30
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-9| J: Jack Callan| T: R Varian| OR:  79
Built on debut promise to cosily bag 14-runner maiden at Kempton (7f) 30 days ago. This daughter of St Mark's Basilica has more to offer. Big shout.
|
Timeform
Ulysses filly who failed to beat a rival (over 1m) in Kempton maiden and novice at Lingfield before Christmas. Lots to find on her return.
|
Timeform
20/1 and hooded, ninth of 11 in maiden at Kempton (1m) on debut 72 days ago. This Camelot filly needs to take a big step forward.

Matilda Joslyngage21
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-0| J: Ryan Kavanagh| T: Kevin Coleman| OR:  77
Lightly-raced filly. Solid fourth of 15 in maiden at Leopardstown (1m) 21 days ago. This Irish challenger holds solid form claims.
|
Timeform
33,000 gns yearling, Study of Man filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 2-y-o 6f winner Valpolicella and 6f/7f winner Cervaro Della Sala. Considered newcomer, especially if the market vibes are positive.
Timeform
Well held in a pair of 11f novices at Kempton last month. Down in trip with lots of work to do.

Forecasts

Venetian Gold (11/10), Matilda Joslyngage (3/1), Afraj (7/2), Poddle Park (8/1), Miss Guinevere (16/1), Living In Hope (50/1), Blue Birdie (100/1)

Verdict

VENETIAN GOLD holds the clear edge on the form of her recent Kempton victory and with further progress on the cards she looks the way to go here. Afraj returns from a six-month absence but John and Thady Gosden's Chelmsford scorer could still emerge as the chief threat ahead of Irish raider Matilda Joslyngage and newcomer Poddle Park.
