Maiden handicaps can be tricky to work out but this looks an above average contest of that nature with BAHAMIAN SUNRISE a hopeful choice for a yard that is already closing in on a century of winners for the year. He has the best juvenile form on offer by far but does need to return to that level after a rather disappointing campaign to date. Hopefully, first-time blinkers will do the trick with Jack Garrity's claim an added bonus. Lamps Of Heaven must get involved on the back of three solid runs in maiden company and she looked a more settled, relaxed filly when runner-up at Doncaster last time. She's a danger to all. A couple of dark ones lie at the foot of the weights in Decisive and Bahamian Desert and it will be interesting to see if there's any support for the Cowell and O'Meara inmates off such lowly marks.
