Verdict
Misleain is taken to land the finale with Gunadoir and Just Stunning the main dangers. The selection caught the eye on her debut when she chased home Eden Linty in a bumper at Musselburgh. She is sure to come on for the experience and she looks the percentage call. Gunadoir has shown very little in two runs so far but this looks to be weak bumper and her stable is in flying form so she has to be considered. Just Stunning is a well-bred newcomer and this filly is certainly worth a look in the market, along with the Sue Smith-trained Flora May. However, for the winner we will return to Misleain who has the best form on offer.
