Verdict

There are some interesting newcomers in the field for this maiden including Luca Cumani's Falcun, Sir Mark Prescott's Sumarian and Brian Meehan's Cheddar George but preference is for one with experience with the vote going to SIGNIFICANT MOVE. Roger Charlton's colt made a very promising debut when finding just Brian Meehan's Colonel Carter too good in what looked a decent maiden at Newbury last month and he can go one better today. Gary Moore's Blitzed ran better than was expected on his debut as a juvenile at Newmarket in October and has to be respected on his first run this year, while Andrew Balding's Breakheart stepped up from his debut effort as a juvenile and has to be considered on his first outing as a three-year-old. Curlew failed to justify short odds first time up at Hamilton and now looks best watched with a better bet looking to be Significant Move, who can go one better than on his debut.
