The first of four maidens on today's card and Forward Move has obvious form claims, and can beat the well bred newcomer Maidanni and Paul Cole's My Putra. Richard Hannon trains the selection who put up a terrific performance on his debut when chasing home Humourous at Kempton. He showed tremendous grit and determination, going down by the shortest of margins and looked a certain future winner. Humourous is yet another Godolphin juvenile and they are represented here by Maidanni, who boasts an interesting American pedigree. He is sure to be fit and ready so keep an eye on this one in the betting. My Putra made a promising debut in a hot contest at York, finishing a close up third behind Haunting Memories. With normal improvement he must be a big danger to the selection. Fantastic Luck and Ross Moor are from top yards and should be watched in the market, but on this occasion we will stick with form and plump for Forward Move.
