      Verdict

      This looks a good opportunity for LIVING IT LARGE to open his account and he is nominated to get the better of Bahraj and Dower Glen. The selection made a pleasing impression on his debut when he chased home Colonel Mak at Hamilton. That form has worked out well and natural progression should make him very difficult to beat. Bahraj finished fourth on her debut at Ayr but she wasn't beaten all that far and she did look in need of the run that day so there is reason to believe she will come on plenty for it. Ian Semple's filly Dower Glen has had a few chances now and although she clearly has ability she may do better in nurseries. Pink Lemonade has hinted at ability in Ireland and she is one to note in the market. However, Living It Large sets a decent benchmark for the others and he should prove tough to beat.
