Verdict

An interesting maiden fillies' race with the beautifully-bred Sir Michael Stoute filly, Grain Of Gold, catching the eye. She is by Mr Prospector out of Pure Grain, who won the Irish and Yorkshire Oaks. She looks to hold a good chance of getting some winning brackets to her name. Mabrooka was fourth in what looked a decent Newmarket maiden last time, with Stoute's yard providing the winner. Voucher looks booked for a place.
