        Verdict

        Unusual to see a second nursery on the card and the choice of AURIC GOLDFINGER can only be speculative based on what the son of Kyllachy has achieved in three maiden starts. However, he has contested fair maidens and was noted staying on late on his most recent start. He is expected to reveal improvement moving into handicap company for the first time. Madam Prancealot battled on bravely to secure a first success at Lingfield, a quality which will serve her well in the follow-up attempt whilst the consistent London Grammar got off the mark latest with a comfortable claiming success. The latter is no star but her ability to run her race should see her competitive, despite joint top-weight. Blast Of Faith has a claim on one piece of form - a fair fourth at Nottingham on his penultimate start - and now wears cheekpieces for the first time.
