      Verdict

      Mark Johnston has never had any qualms about pitching three-year-olds in against older rivals at this relatively early stage of the campaign and could well be rewarded for his bold approach with TITI MAFKI NAP). His filly showed plenty of promise across five juvenile starts, notably when delivering three consistent efforts throughout November. An official rating of 70 seems a fair starting point for the new campaign and she can take advantage of the 16lb she receives from recent Carlisle winner Forever A Lady. Arcane Dancer, entered on Wednesday, is the other to merit considerable respect on the back of a battling runner-up effort at Beverley last time.
