A trappy maiden here but something has to win and the principals look to be Billion Dollar Kid, Little Toto and Mon Plaisair and the vote is given to Billion Dollar Kid. The selection has been second in both starts to date and a reproduction of his latest second behind Toto Skyllachy sets a fair standard granted that was on a softer surface but he has also ran with promise on fast ground and from a fair draw he looks the one to be on. Little Toto rates the main danger on his latest third behind Marchpane. He looks sure to improve and with his yard in form he will not be far away. Mon Plaisair was a fair third on his debut behind Redesignation. He looks sure to improve and he should be watched in the market. Of the remainder Nezami is another with place claims but he was behind Little Toto last time out and on the same terms here he has a little to find and with this in mind for the winner we return to Billion Dollar Kid.
