Regal Jubilee²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 101

2/1

C&D listed winner (heavy) on her final 2-y-o start and bettered that form when neck second to Folgaria (Elmalka close up in third) in Fred Darling at Newbury (7f, good) on reappearance. The Guineas was too much to ask last time but this is a much more realistic assignment.

Form: 911-20

(3)

Ambiente Amigo³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J Dobbs| T: James Owen| OR: 85

12/1

Won maiden/novice events on turf and AW at Lingfield at the end of last summer but well held in Fillies' Mile at Newmarket on final 2-y-o start (left Michael Bell after) and fared no better in 1¼m handicap there on reappearance for James Owen. Outsider.

Form: 2118-8

(8)

Francophone¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 99

6/4

Ayr novice winner last year who produced a very useful effort when making a successful start to her 3-y-o campaign in 1m Southwell. Backed it up with an excellent second in the Musidora and strikes as a big player.

Form: 125-12

Kitteridge²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Davies| T: H Palmer| OR: 86| D

12/1

Confirmed debut promise in the manner of a useful prospect when landing Newcastle fillies' maiden over this trip in February. Only third upped to listed level at Newmarket since but remains with the potential for better.

Form: 213

(4)

Local Arms²⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: K R Burke| OR: 84| BF

14/1

Much better for debut when wide-margin winner of Beverley (heavy, 7.4f) novice in September. Not in same form at Goodwood following week and off since. Will stay.

Form: 414-

(9)

Molten Rock¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: L Morris| T: K R Burke| OR: 91

18/1

Did the job well when making a winning debut at Redcar (1m, heavy) in October before sound third in a Newmarket listed contest. Yet to fire this season but return to this trip should help and there's likely a bigger effort in her.

Form: 13-45

(2)

Queen Of Atlantis²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: P W Chapple-Hyam| OR: 80| D

20/1

Completed an AW hat-trick during the winter, narrowly prevailing when upped to this trip at Lingfield on latest start in January. Creditable fourth in a Sandown handicap last month but has plenty to find in this company.

Form: 581-114

(10)

Where I Wanna Be²⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 77

12/1

Camelot filly bred much more for stamina than speed and confirmed debut promise when landing 7-runner maiden at Nottingham 8 months ago. Type to make a better 3yo and longer trip should help, so not discounted for all that she has a chunk of improvement to find.

Form: 41-

Forecasts

Francophone (6/4), Regal Jubilee (2/1), Beeley (6/1), Where I Wanna Be (12/1), Ambiente Amigo (12/1), Kitteridge (12/1), Lava Stream (12/1), Local Arms (14/1), Molten Rock (18/1), Queen Of Atlantis (20/1)

REGAL JUBILEE was a bit out of her depth in the 1000 Guineas last time but this looks a much more straightforward task and she remains open to improvement, so gets the nod over Francophone, who ran well in the Musidora at York on her latest outing. Beeley is also considered.
