Goodwood Race 2 - Fitzdares Apprentice Fillies' Restricted Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
VENETIAN GOLD (2) confirmed debut promise a month ago scoring by 1L a 1400m maiden at Kempton AW. This rates an ideal opportunity to follow up tackling a longer trip. Leading player. MATILDA JOSLYNGAGE (5) made the frame on final outing last year when 1.75L second in a 1600m maiden at Thurles (Ireland) before returning with a good 2.5L fourth over 1600m in a Leopardstown maiden (Ireland) three weeks ago. Improvement expected. AFRAJ (1) represents a top yard and made a winning debut last November scoring narrowly a 1400m maiden at Chelmsford City AW. Makes appeal on return. PODDLE PARK (6) might show promise on first start.
