Dnata Flyer, Moonage Daydream and Atlantic Beach make most appeal in this maiden and the vote is given to Dnata Flyer. The selection is a well-bred colt from a yard in form and he will not have to be anything special to make a winning racecoure debut. Moonage Daydream was a fair second behind Days Of Pleasure last time and he looks progressive. However, he may have been flattered by his proximity to the winner that day as he idled in front so he will need to improve again to take this. Atlantic Beach is another interesting newcomer who is related to some nice types and he might be capable of getting competitive. Ancient Cross is from a shrewd yard and is the other worth a mention, but for the winner we will return to Dnata Flyer.
