Gilded gets the call here ahead of Pretty Majestic and Harvest Joy. Gilded has shown very good juvenile form, not least for this time of year, in winning her last two races. She sets the benchmark and gets the vote, not least after her very good win at Newmarket last time. Queen Of Narnia has an eight-pounds pull for three lengths based on Warwick maiden form but the selection looks the more progressive. An 80,000 guineas daughter of Street Cry, Elizabeth Street is interesting on her debut, Rod Millman knows how to ready one, so watch out for Harvest Joy, but of more interest is Mick Channon's Pretty Majestic, a 28,000 guineas daughter of Invincible Spirit. In fact she could give the seelction, Gilded, the most to do.
