Orama's Ghost, Mirthful and Dan Buoy look the three to concentrate on in this maiden and the vote is given to Orama's Gohst. The selection was a fair third in a similar race behind Wise Little Girl last time out. That form sets the standard here and she need only reproduce that effort to win this. Mirthful rates the main danger on his latest third behind Wing Express but the drop in trip has to be of concern. Dan Buoy is another that could go well but he has had plenty of chances and his future may lie in handicaps so he is taken on with this in mind. Of the remainder Pugnacious Lady and Accumulus have ran with promise in the past but have not progressed as expected and with this in mind for the winner we return to Orama's Ghost who will be hard to beat.
