Getting heavily involved in races of this nature is for the fearless only and, as this bunch all have questions to answer, none of these can be forwarded with more than tepid confidence. The Venetia Williams-trained Pougatcheva is probably the least exposed and, with the benefit of her British debut now out of the way, she is taken to start paying her way for her new connections. Jawwala is capable of going close at this level but appears to have temperament problems and is not one to rely upon too strongly. Top Of The Dee is best of the rest.
