Verdict

The market will offer most clues but in the absence of it, TWISTED WINGS gets our vote ahead of Sirens and Henrys Air. A relatively cheap purchase, the daughter of Camacho is well berthed today and should not want for pace as she is a half-sister to a number of juvenile winners. Sirens has the benefit of an outing. She was well held in a Newmarket maiden so it will be interesting to see how she adapts on this drop in grade. Henrys Air ran encouragingly at Wolverhampton and attempts to translate this form to a different artificial surface. Jossy Johnston was easy to back at Haydock over six and is surprisingly dropped back to five. Robert Cowell hasn't had many juveniles so a market watch is recommended for Silent Blessing. Captain Loui is tried in blinkers for the first time. A modest opener where in the absence of any idea from the betting, Twisted Wings is offered up as a tentative nomination.
