Verdict

Propaganda will surely win races and came close to doing so at Wolverhampton last month but Luca Cumani's filly is by Sadler's Wells and very few of his progeny win on the Fibresand so a safer bet looks to be Scary, who gets the vote with Satindra rated the pick of the remainder. The selection ran a promising race on his debut at Kempton last month and Paul Cole's son of Peintre Celebre should come on for that outing so gets the vote to do so and open his account today. Soldier Field has claims on the pick of his form but has seemingly regressed and is hard to recommend on recent evidence. Joe Rich makes limited appeal on pedigree and of more interest may be Satindra, who has run respectably albeit in a low grade of late. Scary is unexposed though and he is preferred.
