In depth

Verdict

The E120,000 purchase VENTURA VISION nay have enough pace to make a winning start for Mark Johnston’s in-form yard. She’s preferred to Talking Point, whose stable can get one ready for action, but breeding suggests both On My Way and Captain Bonny will be seen to better effect when tackling longer distances. Katie's Kitten is a US-bred related to a winning sprinter on the Dirt and Coul Queen is a half-sister to a winner in Italy.
