Verdict

The selection is Maljimar for Henrietta Knight with the chief dangers being Young Dude and Sweet Oona.Maljimar improved and won really nicely here last month beating Mightymuller and can improve again.Jonjo O'Neil's Young Dude put up a good performance in finishing second to Return Ticket at Worcester.Sweet Oona is a consistant Mare and her 3rd to Philomena here in February gived her place prospects. But the choice is Maljimar to continue improving and take this contest.
