        Verdict

        This nursery will not take much winning and RED CELL is selected to win it while Lujeanie and Courageous Nature look others to take into consideration. The selection steps back up to six furlongs here following five efforts over the minimum trip while also making his debut here for the Ian McInnes yard. The selection likes to race on the pace and the only concern is his ability to see out the trip as he possess so much early speed. Lujeanie is a handicap debutant whose best career effort was over six furlongs at Windsor on his second start. He missed the break last time so could well be forgiven for that effort. Courageous Nature is another that is likely to be on the pace. He has slipped down the ratings having acquired a higher handicap mark earlier in the year but is looking a tad exposed. Meydan Groove was claimed from Paul Cole's yard having finished second at Wolverhampton three starts back. His form on the turf has been disappointing subsequently and Red Cell is selected to win this despite concerns that six furlongs may just stretch his stamina.
