Fishforcompliments, gets the vote in this maiden with First Mate and Wait Watcher rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second on his debut behind Celtic Sultan, that form has sine been franked and from a good draw and with improvement likely he will be hard to beat. First Mate rates the main danger as he hails from a yard that can do no wrong with its two years olds and this Desert Prince colt should be closely watched in the market. Wait Watcher is another that could go well on his debut second behind Hinton Admiral but the suspicion is he will be seen to better effect over a longer trip in time. Of the remainder Sir Charles is another that has shown a modicum of ability in two runs to date but he is more exposed than most and for the winner we return to Fishforcompliments.
