This is a decent nursery and Jack Oliver is given a narrow vote ahead of Pango's Legacy and Fabuleux Millie. Brian Meehan's colt was an impressive maiden winner at Windsor before chasing home Mambo Spirit in a Warwick handicap. The winner went in again on Saturday so the form looks rock solid and he is the one to be on. Pango's Melody ran really well on his handicap debut in a good race at Newmarket and is open to plenty of improvement. Fabuleux Millie made a very favourable impression when landing her maiden at Windsor. She was pitched into listed company last time at Newbury so is obviously highly thought of and she should go well in this grade. Hucking Hill and Auction Oasis are two others in with a shout, but Jack Oliver has the best handicap form on show and he gets the verdict.
