Verdict

This presents a real conundrum from a betting point of view and PAINT SPLASH is only a speculative selection to get the better of First Blade and Keskianto; while is would hardly be a bolt from the blue if Inthawain were to brush aside the burden of top weight. The last named has run her best races at this course and, as she is ideally suited by the trip, Noel Wilson's three-year-old may easily rise up to the challenge in this grade. Keskianto swapped hands for 3500gns after winning a seller here in February, so it is safe to assume the surface will not be an issue for her. The drop in trip will also be a help and a big run can be expected. First Blade fared well here last time out - only beaten a head and a nose into third, despite the jockey putting up 3lb overweight. This is his first try over six furlongs but, being by classy sprinter Needwood Blade, it shouldn't present too many problems. He may be the best alternative if the betting market throws up any negative vibes about the selection. However, as Paint Splash Noted has been noted for missing the break but then finishing his races powerfully, the fitting of blinkers can be a big help today. It's a risky proposition but, gambling being the name of the game; Paint Splash is fancied to be hard to beat if he can break from the stalls on even terms today.
