Prettilini is at least consistent so we nominate her ahead of Branston Bertie and Touch of Ivory. The filly is dropped into the grade for the first time and while she has had her chances of putting her head infront - she is much more genuine than her form figures suggest so we will weigh in here. Branston Bertie has an eyecatching jockey booking. A step up to seven furlongs will suit and the gelding is appropriately considered. Touch of Ivory is exposed at this level. Her run at Redcar on Friday was adequate but she is always vulnerable to anything with a touch of class. Mystified is a course-and-distance winner who has struggled in nurseries while Trimwaki is dropped in trip having not stayed ten furlongs at Nottingham. Prettilini does have a few reservations about the trip but she is at least consistent so we give her our tentative vote.
