        Verdict

        This is a decent maiden fior this track and we will side with the John Gosden trained Cedar Mountain, Move Over Darling and Blue Denim are two likely dangers. The selection displayed plenty of ability on his recent Leicester debut, making ground up inside the final furlong to finsih second to a more experienced runner. With improvement almost assured he will be hard to beat today. Paul Cole's Move Over Darling looked a decent prospect in her juvenile days, but has obviously had a few problems. However the fact that the stable have kept faith suggests she could be capable of picking up a race or two. The only newcomer in the line up is Blue Denim, who boasts a decent pedigree and is from a yard in form. The pick of the others looks to be Nintyninetreble, but Cedar Mountain does look the best option in a fascinating event.
