Verdict

Ma'am gets the confident vote to win this maiden with Newnham and Swindon rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair fifth behind Mizz Tee in a better race last time out. This looks easier and in the hope that a first time visor brings about some improvement he is taken to score. Newnham rates the main danger on his latest second behind Garibaldi but he has had plenty of chances and is not one to take a short price about,. Swindon was third behind Albajh last time and is another with place claims but he has given the impression he would be suited by a longer trip in the past and he may be seen to better effects in handicaps. Of the remainder Silsong has shown a modicum of ability and could improve for first time blinkers but he looks exposed and in a race where the market will be informative for the winner we return to Ma'am.
