      Verdict

      Three of these won maiden races on their latest starts. Soldier In Action narrowly won over a longer trip at Wolverhampton, though it was a long way back to the third. Kismet Hardy improved to win over 7f at Salisbury last month but TAFTEESH landed a higher grade maiden at the same track in September; the latter gets a tentative vote in a tight contest. Nucky Thompson opened his account back in July but, along with Pickapocket and Strathearn, has yet to figure in a handicap so Show Me Again makes more appeal on his placed effort at Lingfield last week.
