        Verdict

        Baileys Applause, Beverley Beau and Edged In Gold are the three for the shortlist in this handicap and the vote is given to Baileys Applause. The selection put up a good effort in a handicap at Newmarket last time when not beaten far behind Orpen Wide. She had gone close to getting her head in front on her previous three runs and she looks a filly to stay on the right side of at present. Beverley Beau was a little disappointing at Redcar last time but he had previously gone close when a good second behind Phantom Song at Catterick and on the basis of that effort he has to be considered today. Edged In Gold is lightly-raced and although she looks to have a little to find with our selection, she has shown enough to suggest that she has a realistic chance of claiming a place today. Golband is from a top yard and is another that could go well at a price, but we will stick with Baileys Applause who looks the one to beat.
