Verdict
JELLICLE has shown steady improvement and if she's progressed again since her third at Doncaster in November, then John Gosden's filly is the one to beat. However, Chatterati is not far behind her on her close-up fourth over C&D in September and she could have a say in the finish, while Barbarella Blue is worth noting for any strong support and is preferred to fellow newcomer Roundelay. The remainder have been well beaten so far and are hard to fancy as a consequence.
