        Verdict

        Pergolacha may improve enough to open her account at the expense of stablemate Pukka and John Gosden's newcomer Rendevouz Point in division one of this maiden for juveniles. Luca Cumani holds a strong hand here with two fancied contenders, each having their third racecourse outing, and on the evidence so far, Pergolacha may be the one. The daughter of Sadler's Wells took time to get the hang of things on her Doncaster debut, eventually finishing in mid-division, and caught the eye when staying on at Redcar ahead of Pukka, another of Sadler's Wells progeny, who has to concede the sex allowance here. Both will relish the step up to a mile, with preference for the former. Rendezvous Point could be anything, but John Gosden's filly may be found wanting for stamina, certainly at this early stage, so maybe best watched for the time being, but Resonance, by Slip Anchor, should have no problems getting a trip in time. With Gerard Butler's stable in form still, it would be unwise to write off Land of Nod, but in a race in which bets should be kept small, Pergolacha is the pick.
