In depth

Verdict

Loulwa is impossible to oppose in this maiden with Sunley Peace and Furmigadelagiusta rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair fourth behind Dalvina last time out. That form looks rock solid in the context of this race and with improvement likely she is hard to oppose. Sunley Peace rates the main danger on his latest fifth behind Malher but he has had plenty of chances without taking one and again he is opposed. Furmigadelagiusta is another with place claims on his latest fourth behind Camps Bay but the suspicion is he will be seen to better effect in a handicap. Of the remainder Sadler's Leap ran well last time out but that was on a much faster surface. This maiden lacks strength in depth and with this in mind for the winner we return to Loulwa who sets a fair standard and will be hard to beat.
