      Verdict

      This looks a fair maiden by the track's standards and COMPTON SYLVIA will be our speculative pick against Flaxen Lake and Esuvia. Pat Eddery did have a winner last week so that rates as an obvious positive in anyone's book. He introduces a half-sister to six furlong specialist, Crimson Brook, and were she to be of any ability, we can expect the paper forecast to be made somewhat irrelevant. Flaxen Lake has the benefit of race experience. He caught the eye with a third at big odds at Pontefract earlier in the year and will rate the benchmark figure for the assessor. Esuvia is a half-sister to Resplendent Glory. Clearly a late maturing filly, she did not do a lot wrong at Wolverhampton last time out. Major Maximus represents an in form yard and has obvious claims on official BHA figures. Exearti shaped with a little more purpose last time out before tiring inside the closing stages. Darling Buds was easy to back on debut so clearly is someway down the pecking order at Kevin Ryan's. For the winner, we return to Compton Sylvia.
