    Verdict

    Gin Time has shown more than enough to suggest she can win a race like this but we're worried about the extra furlong. It's unusual to see a Sir Mark Prescott two-year-old run in this grade so Flora Medici is respected, though she hasn't shown much. MY LITTLE FRIEND was last in his first two starts and only beat two home at York last time but is eased in class for this and now blinkered. We'll reluctantly take a chance on Mark Tompkins' colt in this small field as Ivan B looks very moderate on the evidence so far.
