Formscan - Afraj made a winning start at Chelmsford in November and must be respected, but VENETIAN GOLD looks the stronger of the penalised pair. Roger Varian's filly improved on her introductory effort to score at Kempton last month and given that she ought to be even better over the mile, this could be another fine opportunity. The Irish raider Matilda Joslyngage should not be underestimated and completes the shortlist.
