Invincibella carries a penalty after winning by a neck over 5f at Kempton while the drop down to today’s distance looks likely to suit Furious on the evidence of her debut fifth over 7f at Goodwood. But OPEN SEA showed her inexperience in the early stages at Pontefract on her debut before staying on for fourth and the Godolphin filly may prove good enough with an apprentice’s allowance helping her cause. She’s preferred to Orchid Killer but the US-bred newcomer Favre is related to winning sprinters and worth a second glance.
