Verdict

Montana, Angel Rays and Imperial Rule look the three to concentrate on in this maiden and the confident vote is given to the last named. The selection was a fair second behind Bahamian Ballet last time out, this looks easier and he need only reproduce that effort to win this. Montana rates the main danger on his latest third behind Poker Player but he has had plenty of chances without taking one and again he looks vulnerable. Angel Reys is another worthy of respect on her best form and she could improve with the aid of a first time tongue tie so she should be noted in the market. Of the remainder Mina is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Imperial Rule.
