This looks to be a trappy maiden and narrow preference is for Farthermost, over Transfer and Totally Focussed. The selection was a beaten favourite at Salisbury last time, but he lost no caste in defeat that day and he can get his head in front now that he is upped to this more suitable trip. Transfer is a lightly-raced 3-year-old from the Andrew Balding yard and he was not disgraced in quite a hot contest last time at Kempton. He is open to further improvement and he can go well. Totally Focussed finished in mid-division in a handicap last time and he should find this easier, so he is another who has to enter calculations. Marcus Tregoning's newcomer Shadayid Khanum is worth a look in the market, but for the winner we will stick with Farthermost who can open his account.
