Verdict

KINETIX has finished second on both her two starts to date and is given the vote to get her head in front on the third time of asking ahead of Spirit of Dubai and Critical Path. The John Gosden filly has run two fine races in defeat at Nottingham and Newbury. Both races have worked out well and although she was a beaten favourite last time she is sure to put her doubters at rest today. Spirit of Dubai ran a personal best at Chester last time out finishing a close second of five. She continues to improve with race experience and with that in mind she warrants respect. Critical Path has run two fine races to date. She was fourth on her debut at Kempton and improved to finish third of fifteen in a competitive maiden at Goodwood last time. She is another improver so should be monitored in the betting market. This is a good little maiden in terms of quality and Kinetix gets the narrow vote.
