Ten Tenors made a very pleasing debut at Wolverhampton recently and can take this modest looking maiden, Crimson King and Going Skint may provide mist danger. Jamie Osborne's daughter of Rossini wasn't given a hard time by her jockey and came home seven lengths behind stable companion Donna Giovanna in a hot looking maiden. With improvement almost guaranteed she should be capable of picking up a modest event like this. Crimson King also ran well on his racecourse bow, finishing an excellent third behind Cookie Cutter. The second and sixth have won since so the form looks rock solid and he should make his presence felt. The pick of the newcomers should be Tim Easterby's Going Skint who is certainly bred to appreciate this six furlong trip. Value Plus is the dark horse in the line up having been a decent performer in Ireland two years ago, any money for this one would be significant. However Ten Tenors should progress nicely from a tender debut and gets our vote this afternoon
