Verdict

Some promising fillies on show here, with the well-bred SEA THE WONDER taken to make it 2-2 following an impressive start to her career at Chelmsford. This is a much tougher assignment, but she can be expected to take a significant step forward here with that experience to draw upon. Newcomer Gold Penny makes plenty of appeal on paper and could be the pick of the Gosden-trained duo ahead of Glistening, while Consent and Wujjood are also of interest given their profiles.

Sea The Wonder (Ire) silk

The 9-runner Chelmsford novice (1¼m) she landed on debut last month wasn't a particularly strong race, but she went about her business in the manner of one destined for better things (as one would hope for a filly who fetched 310,000 gns as a yearling). Lots to like.

Gold Penny silk

Cracksman filly. Half-sister to numerous winners, including top-class winner up to 1¼m Farhh, very smart 1m-10.3f winner Racing History and smart 1m winner Basem. Much to like about this filly on paper and it will be interesting to see how she shapes up in the betting.

Glistening silk

Frankel filly who shaped well when third on debut at Yarmouth last summer before finishing a clear second to subsequent listed winner Formal in a Newbury maiden. Again chased home one who has since gone on to better things at Sandown on final start of 2024 and she's a big player.
