      Verdict

      Just a handful of runners does not diminish the interest in this juvenile contest where the three to concentrate on look to be Introvert, My Vindication and TREASURY DEVIL. The last-named is selected after an impressive debut effort to score on good ground at Newbury last month. He has had a bit of time to get over that run, the yard is in superb form at present and there could be plenty more improvement to come so we will side with him. Introvert may well go off favourite in receipt of 3lbs from our pick and is related to some useful juveniles whilst also putting together a good profile himself. Although far from fully exposed we do at least have a bit more of a handle on his capabilities. Any Richard Hannon-trained juvenile pitched in at this level has to be respected and he has a good pedigree to boot so a market check is strongly advised regarding My Vindication.
