Verdict

Henry Cecil's horses are firing on all cylinders at present and Transit could supply the great trainer with another winner. Having been narrowly defeated in two maidens on his last couple of starts Cecil has chosen to stick with the same company here and Transit may well be sent off a warm order to lose his maiden tag. The only two obvious rivals are Dawana who should improve for a respectable Salisbury debut in a decent maiden and Environment Audit who has been highly-tried in the past and should have a maiden in him in the near future.
