This is a small but trappy affair where Daytime Girl may just prevail ahead of Hathlen & Habitual Dancer. The Barry Hills trained filly started this new campaign with a very promising third behind Hazyview in a class C handicap at Newmarket and looks capable of giving weight and a beating to these rivals. Hathlen hated the heavy ground at Newcastle first time up this season when well beaten behind October Mist, but did much better next time when a close up sixth behind Lochbuie. Habitual Dancer didn't set the world alight on the turf last season, but following a promising effort in a maiden at Doncaster, he landed a Southwell contest earlier this month. Zaffeu is another to consider in a very open event but we will side with Daytime Girl.
