Forecasts

Venetian Gold (11/10), Matilda Joslyngage (15/8), Afraj (4/1), Poddle Park (14/1), Miss Guinevere (18/1), Living In Hope (100/1), Blue Birdie (300/1)

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.
