BEDLAM showed enough on her debut to suggest she can win a race of this nature. She finished third at York and, with improvement expected here, should have the edge on Joshua The First. The latter is making steady progress with a recent second at Hamilton his best effort so far, while Twin Ivan showed some promise on his debut and he too can figure. Knight Express and On The Hoof have plenty of speed in their pedigrees and are both worth noting for any strong support in the betting.
