GAVOTA and Goodnight Girl clashed at Newmarket 19 days ago with Roger Charlton's filly coming out on top to justify market confidence. Her yard's record here and a future Group two entry suggest she will take some beating. Goodnight Girl is entitled to finish closer on these terms but the yard have been struggling for winners lately. Unchaining Melody and Qafilah look the pick of the newcomers.
