Verdict
Look After Me finished just eight lengths behind an 80-rated horse in a recent Musselburgh maiden and we believe that he can see off Balerno and Mount Royale. Kieren Fallon has been booked for this habitual placer and if he reproduces that form of that recent Musselborough maiden. Balerno has had many chances and was placed behind Scarrottoo at Yarmouth earlier in the month. He does possess a favourable mark vis-a-vis his all-weather rating and Kevin Darley has been booked for the mount. Mount Royale should be fit from a couple of outings on the artificial surfaces and would not want any further rainfall overnight. Peregian is taking his first turf race over seven furlongs for quite some time and is of interest if there is any market support. Look After Me is nominated in the most difficult race of the day.
