        Verdict

        Punta Galera gets the confident vote to win this maiden with Art Investor and Boquilobo rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair sixth in a much better race behind Doctor Dash last time out and from what looks a good draw and with his yard in top form he is hard to oppose. Art Investor rates the main danger on his debut fourth behind Extreme Measures. He is sure to have learnt from the experience and will not be far away but that form has since been let down badly and for that reason he is opposed. Boquilob is another worthy of respect as he is a well bred cold By Rainbow Quest and his yard are going well with its two-year-olds and have a good strike rate at the track so he should be noted in the market. Of the remainder Botteen and Los Cabos are other well bred types that could go well at a price but are bred to be suited by further and for the winner we return to Punta Galera.
