    Verdict

    A poor turnout in numbers for a decent prize at this time of year and Shustraya should be capable of making experience count. The selection has won her last two starts emphatically and still looks to be very much on the improve. Pixie Ring defied market weakness to land a maiden at the track. That was a fair debut performance from Sir Mark Prescott's runner although it was put into some perspective by the fact that the second has gone on again to find another too good. Comptonspirit is a cheaply bought daughter of Compton Place and would need to be something special in order to make her presence felt at this level. The race deserved much better than this turnout and Shustraya gets the nod.
