Verdict

Al Muheer, Bellalatino and Bozeman Trail are shortlisted in this maiden and the vote is given to Al Muheer. The selection looks a colt that will be winning races soon on the evidence of what we have seen so far. He wasn't beaten far by Dan Tucket at Newmarket last time, form that reads well in the context of this race, and he can put his experience to good use. Bellalatino was well beaten at Ascot last time but that was in a much stronger race than this and she should be more at home at this level. Bozeman Trail hails from a top yard and he shaped with plenty of promise on his debut when finishing in mid-division in a race won by Semah Harold at Wolverhampton. Princess Lomi is from a yard with a good strike-rate in these type of events and she is certainly worth a look in the market, while Aneebee is from a top yard and she will come on plenty for her debut at Kempton. However, Al Muheer sets the standard for the rest and is taken to score.
