Verdict
Marcus Tregoning's Juwireya is surely better than she has shown to date but she is hard to back with any confidence on what she has shown so far and this looks to lie between RADIO WAVE and Prince Of Dreams with preference for the former. John Gosden's filly showed promise on her only start as a juvenile and showed improved form on her reappearance earlier this month when stepped up in trip when finding just Meeznah too good in a Newmarket maiden, a reproduction of that form may well suffice. Ralph Beckett's Countess Comet should improve for the longer trip today having weakened over a mile on her only start as a juvenile. Michael Jarvis has his string in good heart so High Ransom has to be considered but she has been well held in both starts so far. Richard Hannon's Donna Elvira disappointed on her second start at two but may do better now on her first outing as a three-year-old, although more solid claims are held by Prince of Dreams. William Knight's colt has run well in both starts so far and the yard is in good form at present so he has to be respected but Radio Wave has the best form on offer and she looks the one to beat.
