In depth

Verdict

Lady Benjamin should need further in time so the three to concentrate on are Holly Golightley, Lady Rangali and Maid In Bloom and the narrow vote goes to Holly Golightley. Lady Rangali was only beaten a length on debut and able to put that experience to good use today, she should go close. She got the hang of things late on that day at Beverley but may not be suited by today's quicker track so is opposed with the selection. Kevin Ryan's filly showed some good early pace on debut and was then hampered late on. Her good early toe makes her the prime suspect today. Moonlight Gambler should be watched in the market coming from a shrewd stable who have started the season well, as should Maid In Bloom who is bred for speed. Select Committee is another to watch in the market, however Holly Golightley can put her experience to good use and gets the vote.
