Langston Boy is in really good heart and is taken to get the better of Just A Try and Rosapenna. The selection won well last time when beating Kelly Nicole at Wolverhampton at the end of January. She looks a progressive type and she won't need to find much improvement to get her head in front again here. Just A Try looks the obvious danger as he didn't see out the trip over a mile at Lingfield when third behind Roman Quintet. The return to this trip will suit but he still looks to have a bit to find to beat our selection. Rosapenna did not look the most straightforward when a good second behind Guildenstern last time at Lingfield. It is not clear what his best trip is and he is not one to place a great deal of faith in. Colonel Bilko is from a yard in form and could be the best of the rest, but Langston Boy looks progressive and gets the vote.
