        Verdict

        Rain And Shade,Aajel and Yab Adee are three against the field in this maiden and the vote is given to Rain and Shade. The selection was a fair second behind Sweetheart last time out and with the step up in trip likely to bring about more improvement he looks the one to be on from a fair draw. Aajel rates the main danger as he is a well bred colt by Aljabr from a yard in top form and he will not need to be anything special to take a hand in the finish so he should be noted in the market. Yab Adee has shown promise in two runs to date and is another with pklace claims but he will be handicaped after this run and that bis where his future may lie. Not Too Taxing is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he has had plenty of chances and again he looks vulnerable but for the winner we return to Rain And Shade who is taken to put his experiance to good use.
