        Verdict

        The vote here goes to Colonial Girl ahead of Sir Loin and Brut. The selection looked promising early on as a juvenile, but her form dipped later. However, the application of an eyeshield last time seemed to bring about some improvement this season. With it left on again today, we take her to land what is, overall, a modest race. Crowberry showed promise on his all-weather debut, but the form is modest. Sir Loin has run solid races in handicaps from a mark of around 60, so you have your benchmark for the form right there, similar comments applying to Brut. The best of Our Little Secret's form is just behind this, but you cannot dismiss her chance, while Real Bond, who is rated just behind the pair mentioned, might improve for the drop to five furlongs for the first time. The others would need to find improvement or look unlikely to score on their debuts so, once again, for the winner, we return to Colonial Girl.
