In The Lead, Hendre Hotshot and Look of Eagles look the three to concentrate on in this contest with the narrow vote going to In The Lead. The selection was improving on the flat, is sure to have ben well schooled for this her gurdling debut and will not need to be anything special to make a winning debut. Hendrie Hotshot rates the main danger as he was a fair second on his debut behind Spinning Coin but she has already given the impression she would be suited by a longer trip and is taken on with this in mind. Look Of Egals is another that could go well but all his best form on the flat was on a faster surface and he is taken on with this in mind. Of the remainder Jaunty Flight is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but his overall profile leaves him with plenty to find and with this in mind for the winner we return to In The Lead.
