The formbook rather than the gallop report suggests otherwise...

I wouldn't worry too much about the works - he prepped them all at River Downs and he knows who his best horse is

Flame is very in the know imo and his opinions must be held in high regard
The formbook tells us Aegean is the better horse, they clashed in the States and Aegean beat Jealous Again comfortably.

Ward was very bullish about Aegean this afternoon too, sounded in his voice as if it was a formality.
Gallop reports aren't all that, plenty have been chinned on the back of a gallop report.

I'm sure we've been told about various machines from gallop reports. Prefer to go on what happens on the track tbh and since the fillies have only worked two or three times over here it will be hard to judge without knowing the horses and how they work usually.
Before coming over here they worked together in a public sprint over 3F's on turf at River Downs. They did the trip in 34.80 secs with Aegean edging it from Jealous. On top of that of course, she also holds a race verdict of 1.5L's at Chruchill Downs in their first big juvenile race of the year where Wards did a 1-2. The race has fallen to fillies 7 times in the last 20 years, (I think Iread on soem American chat forum) so I wouldn't overlook the fact that not only do they have fast times, and pattern form, they've also been beating colts

Aegean must be a cert..even if only the same horse as Jealous Again it will be a stone better than anything it will meet this week
