        Verdict

        Finnegan McCool has shown ability in two starts, and along with Like For Like goes on the shortlist, however My Sweet Georgia showed up well on her debut and can improve past them both. The selection contested a hot York maiden at the end of May and wasn't disgraced back in fifth. She should have learnt plenty from that run and proven on this ground, she is fancied to take this prize. Like For Like has shown ability, and she showed plenty of dash on debut. A poor draw scuppered her chances last time at Kempton and she rates the main danger, although this drop to five furlongs may not be ideal. Stablemate Barnezet is one to check for support, especially in relation to her stablemate. One Cool Quest doesn't appeal on debut, so a bigger danger may be Snoqualmie Girl who is fairly well related but may ultimately need more time and a longer trip. An open heat, but My Sweet Georgia gets the vote.
