Filosofo has a shout back in maiden company having come up short in handicaps but has to give weight to the filly JACQUELINE JOULIAC. The latter failed to see out the 1m2f at here last time but was placed over today's trip at Wolverhampton earlier where Synaesthesia was well beaten. John Gosden's charge gets the nod with the remainder harder to fancy unless the newcomer Dukes Meadow turns out above average.
