In depth
Verdict
An obvious choice but La Colline looks the one for us here, with Dragon Flame for the forecast and Bellanora one of few who are likely to get into this sprint maiden. The selection showed plenty of promise at Windsor last week when overcoming a slow start to finish one length second to North Fleet on good to soft. She has at least shown that she handles cut and with plenty of improvement to come she looks more than capable of breaking her maiden. Dragon Flame has had a couple of soft ground experiences in defeat and has not looked particularly special, but at least runs to a level that suggests he will be in the frame here. Bellanora has handled cut in the past but has not seemed quite right in her past two or three starts and we would like to see more from her before she becomes a backable proposition, while little else makes any appeal and La Colline gets the confident vote.
