        Verdict

        Minority Report may be nothing special but Luca Cumani's four-year-old has an obvious chance in such a weak contest and gets the vote to open his account, with the biggest threats expected to come from Sincerely and Gildas Fortuna. The last mentioned ran with promise on her recent debut when 50/1 for a Redcar maiden and finishing a respectable fourth behind Desert Imp. Pink Tourmaline finished mid-division on her debut here over seven furlongs last month and is entitled to improve but probably needs to, while Brave Effect is better known as a hurdler and showed only a modicum of ability on a his belated flat racing debut at Carlisle last month. The Barry Hills-trained Sincerely seemingly showed improved form from her debut at Sandown recently and has to be respected but Minority Report has shown enough to suggest that he can win this and a reproduction of his latest effort at Doncaster may well suffice.
