WANCHAI WHISPER, Chocolate Cookie and Poppy N'penny make most appeal in this opener and the vote goes to Wanchai Whisper. The selection was a winner here last month and she has now got her head in front twice from only four starts on the all-weather. She was good value for her winning margin last time and from a favourable draw she can get her head in front. Chocolate Cookie has yet to get her head in front but she went close in a seller at Wolverhampton last time and on the pick of her form she would be a big player here. Poppy N'penny won well at Windsor last month and she has to be a player at this level. She has run well here in the past and she has a good draw and she should be good enough to have a say in the finish. Little Perisher has only managed to get his head in front once in 14 starts and the switch to the polytrack will need to improve him if he is to get competitive. Ishe A Lord has the worst of the draw but she went close on her debut despite running green, and she is one to note in the market. There are plenty in with chances here and the vote goes to Wanchai Whisper.
