        Verdict

        A tricky maiden in which Hesivorthedriver is selected ahead of Morning Farewell and Lindhoven. Best Selection has shown some promise here in two starts and steps up in trip today. Morning Farewell has earned a rating of 72 courtesy of his latest start at Wolverhampton. Guardian Of Truth, a 40,000 guineas son of Barathea, Hesivorthedriver, a 65,000 guineas son of King's Best, Mark Johnston's Old Etonian, Clive Brittain's Penang, Pippa Green, a 48,000 guineas daughter of Galileo, are the interesting newcomers, and Clive Brittain also saddles the Seb Sanders-ridden Lindhoven. All in all, it is not an easy race to sum up, with our advice being to watch the betting. For the selection, though, we will stick with Hesivorthedriver.
