        Verdict

        Richard Hannon has a strong hand with both PAULOWNIA and Juan Horsepower standing out in this. But the latter has been thereabouts in all three starts so far without showing any marked improvement so the vote goes to the former after finishing runner-up at Newmarket on her debut. The others with racecourse experience make no appeal so Good Omen, half-brother to dual winner Folkswood may prove a bigger threat on his debut and is preferred to fellow newcomers Shipping Forecast and Forgivethenforget.
