      Verdict

      Gold Wand beat a highly-regarded debutante at Newbury before racing too freely in the Oaks. She may well bounce back but FRANCONIA should be able to give her 3lb as she beat a subsequent Listed winner by almost four lengths at Newbury with Chamade a further two lengths adrift in third. Beautiful Illusion was beaten in a handicap on her Turf debut and she is held on collateral form. Eva Maria was four lengths behind Bighearted over this trip at Pontefract and is best over 1m2f.
