This could turn out to be a decent maiden as several of the leading contenders have already shown some ability. CORSETRY, a half-sister to Oaks winner Light Shift and the very smart Shiva and Limnos among others, got outpaced behind Oojooba over a mile at Haydock in September but this trip will be much more to her liking and she can get off the mark this afternoon. Right To Rule found only the more battle-hardened Sir Graham Wade too strong on debut at Haydock and should be winning soon while Synchronicity has plenty of stamina in his pedigree and will improve for his third over 1m3f at Newbury. Kudoz and Mysterious Man are others to have shown promise while fillies Caphene and Estimate should also progress as they gain experience.
