In depth

Verdict

Nina Blini, Hollywood George and Beauchamp Viceroy are the three to look at here and Nina Blini has the best form and is the selection. Hollywood George is trained by Willie Haggas, and given that the yard rarely has a first time out two tear old winner, Hollywood George ran well on his debut at Kempton recently to be third. He can be expected to improve considerably for the run and can play a part here. Beauchamp Viceroy hasnt really progressed since winning a Wolverhampton maiden and he returned to some sort of form when finishing second last time at Lingfield. He was a beaten favourite on that occasion however and is opposed. Nina Blini took a Warwick maiden before running a blinder to be third in the Queen Mary. Her form after that did not progress, but she ran respectably, and on these terms she has to be the selection. Nina Blini can return to winning form.
