Imperial Skylight can land the opener at the expense of April Pride and Dazzling Dust. The selection caught the eye when third to Asaint Needs Brass at Kempton on his debut. As expected he ran a little green that day but was doing his best work at the finish. With that experience now behind him he can improve to break his maiden tag the second time of asking. April Pride comes from the in form Richard Hannon yard. His early two year olds have been running well and tend to know their job first time of asking. With stable jockey Richard Hughes booked to ride he is worth noting for any support in the market. The same can be said about Dazzling Dust who is trained by Bill Turner who is a master of producing early two year old winners and is therefore one to watch in the betting. But for the winner we return to Imperial Skylight.
