This does not look a strong maiden and Sea Gift may be good enough to make a winning debut with Toshi and Sohgol the pair we fear the most. The selection is the Godolphin representative here and she will not have to be anything out of the ordinary to get her head in front. The market should be noted for signs of confidence but if the vibes are positive then it should pay to take the hint. Toshi looks to be the best of those with racecourse experience, but he gave the impression when last seen out that this trip stretched his stamina to the limit and for that reason we will oppose him. Sohgol looks to be going the right way and this filly stepped up on her previous form when a good second behind Raze at Salisbury last time. If she improves for that run then she could go close. Nevsky Bridge is an interesting newcomer and is worth a look in the market, but for the winner we return to Sea Gift.
