Bana Wu is the highest rated of these on account of her fourth in the Group 2 Rockfel at Newmarket in October, although an entry in the Oaks suggests she already needs a longer trip. Godolphin run two and Frankie has opted for Witnessed, who beat Esentepe at Beverley on her debut. The latter subsequently finished ahead of Tactfully when third at Newmarket and jockey bookings suggest she's preferred to stablemate Dreamwriter. Way Too Hot and Arsaadi beat the same horse when winning their respective maidens but the former finished behind Semayyel when she was second at Newbury in October. APPEALING may be a bit further forward than the chief opposition having easily won her maiden at Wolverhampton in January and she gets the nod as an entry in the 1000 Guineas suggests she's blossomed since.
