Zahunda, Go Between and College Maid look the three to concentrate on here and we will give the vote to College Maid. The selection ran better than the bare form suggests when sixth behind Le Meridien in a competitive handicap at Thirsk last time. She looked like she might be running into form that day and with conditions to suit she is taken to score. Zahunda ran well behind Zhitomir at Ayr last time so she is clearly in decent form at present, but she hasn't won for over a year and she does lack consistency so she is opposed for that reason. Go Between found trouble in running but still ran on encouragingly at Leicester last time, so with that effort under her belt she will be interesting if the market speaks in her favour. Bint Royal is out of form although she is capable of taking a hand in the finish, but for the winner we return to College Maid.
