Verdict
Benarchat, Royal Mile and MADE IN TIME may be the three to concentrate on here although inspection of the market should prove fruitful. Bay Central opened his account at the third time of asking for his previous connections but the form doesn't look to be anything out of the ordinary and he's likely to struggle under his penalty. Our Aodh enters calculations but doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary and also looks worth taking on with one of the newcomers. Royal Mile is out of a half-sister to Earth Summit and from a stable that has, traditionally, done well in this sphere over the years so he merits close inspection although the dam has produced nothing of note. Benarchat represents a top yard and has winning form between the flags on these shores. He's a half-brother to several winners including one in this sphere as well as the useful Le Volfoni so it would be no surprise to see him give a good account. However, we're going to take a chance with Made In Time who is a half-brother to the talented Made In Taipan. The trainer has a perfect record with her bumper runners at this track whilst the jockey booking also rates as a positive so it would be no surprise to see a big run from Made In Time.
