Verdict
In the opener, Pinkindie is selected over Mushtaaq and Robby Bobby. Mushtaaq made a promising Newbury debut when third in a fair event and looks set to go well today. Pinkindie has shown promise in being placed in each of his starts to date and, with the step up to a mile looking likely to suit, is another leading contender. As is Mark Johnston's debutant, Robby Bobby, an 80,000 guineas son of Selkirk, Finally, having cost 36,000 guineas as a two-year-old, Top Ticket is not without interest but, for the selection, we return to Pinkindie.
