Verdict
Dizzy Future, Pacific Breeze and Isabella Rossini are three against the field in this maiden and the tentative vote is given to Pacific Breeze. The selection was a fair second last time out behind After Lent. That was his best run to date and with more improvement likely he is a token choice in a desperate affair. Dizzy Future rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Greenwich Meantime this slightly shorter trip should suit and with his yard continuing in good form he will not be far away. Isabella Rossini is another with place claims especially as this longer trip should suit. Of the remainder Outside Half is from a shrewd yard that should be noted in the market especially as he is bred to be suited by this longer trip but in a race that throws up more questions than answers and where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Pacific Breeze
