        Verdict

        NEVER NEVER LAND has shown a similar level of form in two maidens to date and ought to be good enough to win this. John Gosden's charge chased home the 76-rated Opera Dancer here on debut and was short of room at a crucial stage when turned over at 5-6 at Ffos Las next time. Lady Platinum Club has had a busy first season but her form seems to be tailing off. A rating of 67 suggests she won't be good enough again. Podgies Boy is interesting on his Pontefract debut second to Lexi's Hero but he's another who seems to be regressing. Areef has nearly seven lengths to find on the selection on their debut running but was green that day and will improve.
