Verdict

There are a number of unknown quantities in this contest so it is hard to be dogmatic about a selection but, with that said, division one of the fillies' maiden can go to Papality, with Fasliovna, Velveteen Rabbit, Unreal and Della Salute among others to consider. The selection hails from the William Jarvis stable and is by Giant's Causeway, who is starting to have some winners now as a stallion, out of sister to Grand Lodge. Consequently, there seems plenty to like about her and it would be no surprise to see her go well. The Godolphin stable, which is having a good time with its juveniles, runs Velveteen Rabbit, a daughter of Singspiel, and she too is interesting and Fasliovna is related to some good winners and has also to be considered. Of the others, there is something to like about Madhavi but she might appreciate a longer trip in time, a similar comment applying to Satin Finish. There is plenty of speed in Captain Margaret's and, with his stable now in good form, Della Salute is another that could go well from Andrew Balding's stable. The Barry Hills-trained Unreal ran very green but displayed promise in a good event at Newbury on her debut, and can be expected to go better here, while Winds Of Time cost 350,000 guineas but is stoutly bred on her mother's side. As we say, it's hard to be too dogmatic in naming a winner and the betting should be watched with interest but, that said, Papality might provide the answer.
