Verdict
This does not look a great deal better than the seller that The Baroness won here over five furlongs last month (Service held) and she can follow up that success. The Stuart Williams-trained filly overcame an absence since July to land a gamble (backed from 33/1 to 12/1) to win in good style on her all-weather debut and, with further improvement to come, the daughter of Blues Traveller looks worth a bet again. Queens Jubilee lost no caste in defeat behind Scarlet Secret in a course and distance seller last time and should again be thereabouts as should the Alan Jarvis-trained Frimley's Matterry who finished half a length adrift of her in that race. Nick Littmoden's Sporting Affair drops into selling company for the first time and has to be respected with her stable continuing in such good form. Forceful, who has a two month absence to overcome, is not certain to stay the trip. The others make limited appeal in a poor contest.
