Verdict
CLASSY LASSY looks a cut above these. She showed a big improvement to take third in a Listed contest on soft ground at York last time and Brian Ellison's filly should be opening her account in this. Lily Rules was placed on her first couple of starts including over 5f here but disappointed at Beverley last time while Uncle Bobby will need major improvement on his debut fourth, also at Beverley, if he's to figure. Bar Shy is a half-brother to a couple of winners and could prove best of the newcomers ahead of Yorkshire Relish and Maupiti Express.
