Verdict

Highest Regard, Fullandby and Sun Bian are the three that make up the shortlist for this maiden and the vote is given to Highest Regard. The selection was a good second when last seen out on the racetrack over 6f here behind Caona. He didn't get a clear run that day and was doing all his best work at the finish so with the extra furlong today sure to play to his strengths today he is difficult to overlook. Fullandby has shown plenty of promise on all of his runs so far, and he does go well on this track. He put up a decent effort in a handicap last time, and going back to his racecourse debut which came over this course and distance he was a good second behind Bird Over who has since gone on to frank the form. If the selection is not ready after being off the racecourse since December then he should be the one to profit. Sun Bian needed the experience on his debut and should come on for the run, as should Jamie Osborne's Fairy Tale. However, Highest Regard looks the one to beat and as such is given the vote.
