      Verdict

      GREAT HEAVENS opened her account in testing ground at Yarmouth last month. A sister to stablemate and King George hero Nathaniel, John Gosden's filly can take this step up in class in her stride and makes more appeal than her yard's other runner Apothecary, who has a bit to find with Devine Guest on collateral form. Albamara was well beaten in the Fillies' Mile when last seen but middle-distances will be her forte as entries in the Ribblesdale and Irish Oaks suggest and Sir Mark Prescott's filly could prove a danger on her reappearance. It's unlikely we've seen the best of C&D winner Inchina despite her disappointing effort in the Chesire Oaks last time but the remaining pair have plenty to find in this company.
