Verdict

County Classic and Diamond Sal stand out here and we'll side with Diamond Sal. The selection performed well to be second at Wetherby on her debut after running very green and she should be an altogether different proposition today. County Classic won a comparable event at Sedgefield last time after showing promise in two reasonable events on her first two outings. She'll expose any flaws in the selections game. Of the others, Fusion Of Tunes is out of a Darshaan mare that won on the all-weather, Tahrima showed some promise in a reasonable event on her debut at Huntingdon, and Parisienne Gale hails from a stable in form. However, on what we know, the key players are County Classic and Diamond Sal and we'll side with Diamond Sal.
