Yarmouth Race 3 - Gold & Silver Exchange Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)
VENETIAN LION (8) is the sole debutant in the field and makes for some attraction. Bred by St Mark's Basilica out of Forest Crown and is a half-brother to G3 Winter Derby winner Forest Of Dean. Worth considering. ALPINE CULTURE (3) improved from missing the placings when finishing fourth to then manage third on first start this season attempting a Newmarket (Rowley) maiden. Expected to challenge. KIMBARA (6) finished fourth both career outings so far at Newcastle AW and behind the second pick at Newmarket (Rowley). Might reverse outcome. FAHIDI (5) cannot be discounted after a latest third at Haydock Park last season.

Racing first-up today. Finished off last preparation third of 9 at Haydock Park September 4 over 1600m, 1.5 len behind Commanding Officer carrying 58kg at $5. On debut sixth of 11 at Sandown Park July 24 over 1400m, 7 len behind Publish with 60.5kg at $13. Likely improver who can start this prep in a strong way.

Raced twice to date. At debut, second last in a small field at Newcastle All Weather on March 6 over 1200m, 9 len behind Soul Love carrying 56.5kg at $7.50. Second-up 4th of 8 at Newmarket (Rowley) on April 14 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Cerro Blanco with 58kg at $51. The longer journey should suit so watch for sharp improvement.

Third race start. First start ran last of 7 at Newmarket (Rowley) on October 22 over 1600m, 25 len behind Golden Knight with 60.5kg at $41. Returned from break ran last of 9 at Nottingham on April 8 over 2000m, 16 len behind Bay Royale with 56kg at $126. Still early in the prep and might need more time.
