Verdict

A small field here, and an open looking contest, in which we'll select Leadenhall Lass to be first home ahead of Fazbee and Serious Attitude. The selection made all and was running on strongly when winning her only other race over 5 furlongs, so the step up in trip shouldn't be a problem. That was a half decent Windsor maiden. Serious Attitude broke her maiden first time out too, also at Windsor, over this trip. She came from off the pace then but was still a very comfortable winner, and similar tactics could be employed here. Fazbee is more exposed than most, but won over 7 furlongs at Yarmouth last month at very short odds, only to then do nothing in a Newmarket Group 3 race. This is more like her level, but we think she could be beaten by Leadenhall Lass.
