      Verdict

      Optional Necessity made a promising debut over 7f on heavy going at Listowel but hasn't shown much in her subsequent starts and is making her debut on this surface over the minimum. Camacho Dancer and Khwarizmi haven't done enough to suggest they could win this so the newcomer IT'S TWO O CLOCK gets the nod. From a yard having a fine season and with Colin Keane having wrapped up the jockey's title, this half-brother to three winners is likely to attract support and won't need to be a world-beater to make a successful debut. Pat Smullen's presence on the filly Rachel Ruysch suggests she's been going well at home and the daughter of Dutch Art is a half-sister to two 6f winners.
