DARING VENTURE (NAP) made her debut here in August and returned to action at Chelmsford last month with an impressive victory. She looks certain to go well and has a race-fitness advantage over Flarepath, a comfortable winner on the same track in November. Nonchalance started out at Wolverhampton a month ago and showed the benefit with a smooth success at Haydock while Red Romance led for most of the way over the trip here last month and has to be respected. Nazeef is probably John Gosden's second string but has a superb pedigree and it would be no shock to see her in contention.
