      In depth

      Verdict

      PALMETTE is the obvious one in this opener on her debut second to the odds-on Tickled Pink at Yarmouth. She may have been flattered by her proximity to the winner that day however and, though open to improvement, will be plenty short enough here. Wolverhampton third Charming is gradually getting her act together and Byton wasn't beaten far in a decent maiden at Lingfield last time so is worth second look but the others look up against it.
