        Verdict

        RIOLIINA gets the confident vote in this nursery handicap; the list of dangers is headed by Starlarks and Fazbee. The selection has only had the two runs but she could not have been any more impressive when she scored last time out at Bath when she beat Wake Me Now. She has more on her plate today but she looks the type that can and will improve and we are happy to put her forward as the pick, especially as the form of her last run has worked out quite well. Starlarks has had a few chances now but this filly put in her best effort yet at Newmarket last time and if she can build on that then she should be capable of getting competitive. Fazbee won over this course and distance last time and her overall form is quite respectable so she has to enter calculations today. John Gosden's Anjuna will have to step-up on what she has shown so far if she is to get competitive, a comment that would also apply to Hosanna. A tricky race but Rioliina was an easy winner last time and we see no reason to desert her today.
