Verdict

A wide-open contest with all of these handicapping for the first time. Ventura Diamond is the only winner having scored over 6f at Goodwood but GREAT VIBES is preferred. She also ran at Goodwood last month when beaten a neck over today’s trip in a decent Class 2 maiden and is taken to confirm running with fourth-placed Teodolina, though the latter wasn’t beaten far. Sky Angel is another to consider despite failing to land the odds on the Rowley Mile course here and Galah is not out of this either having gone close at Beverley last time.
