Verdict

Blue Dakota should be able to concede a winners' penalty to Come Good and Little Wizzy. The form of his win at Newmarket looks a step above those to have faced the starter and with second placed Turnkey going in since, we will seek not to oppose. Little Wizzy has plenty of early pace and there was no fluke about the Warwick win. The fact that she started off in sellers probably says it all. Come Good has a speedy sire although the fact that the dam is related to a number of long distance performers dampens enthusiasm. Perianth is the selected representative of Brian Meehan's yard. Related to milers, there is probably more to come in time. Blue Dakota is given the nod.
