Verdict
The market may be the best guide however without that information we will plump for TOUCH OF SPRING. Alan Swinbank has a good record in these races and this half-brother to flat winners may be good enough to score on debut. Money for Serenader would be worth respecting, whilst Opera North cost 48,000 guineas and is related to winners under both codes. Divine Eric, Playing Truant and stablemate Plus Jamais, a half-brother to the yard's Sa Suffit, are all considered. The flat-bred filly Josie's Set is another to pay attention to in a rather tricky race for punters.
