        In depth

        Verdict

        Being by Dansili, cut in the ground should suit Green Wadi, who therefore gets a confident vote to take this maiden from All The Aces and Ballochroy. The selection showed the best form on offer here on debut when runner up to Emmrooz at Goodwood over this trip earlier in the month. He was given a nice introduction there and responded well, so now he knows his job he can break his duck. All The Aces looks next best after a promising run here over 7f on debut. He didn't quite see out his effort there, but he has a bit of an excuse as he was squeezed for room, and with a clear run this longer trip can elicit improvement. Ballochroy is another stepping up in trip and can find a bit more, though we suspect he will do better at three. Fly With The Stars and Blue Citadel looks best of the remainder, but green Wadi is the one they all have to beat.
