Verdict
Seaham looks pretty exposed now and it would be no surprise if at least one of today's rivals improves past him. That one could be KRACKERJILL, beaten only a short-head at Lingfield on her introduction and capable of going close in this with normal progress. It's unlikely we've seen the best of Threetimesalady yet while Stella Clavisque, Yajamila and Castagna Girl are others worth a second glance in the betting. Solicitation won't have to be anything special to get involved on his debut either. at of her latest second at Warwick.
