Redkirk makes his racecourse debut but is a half-brother to two winners, though both were sprinters. Cincinnati Girl's latest second to Cape Caster over a similar trip at Windsor is probably the best form in the race but PERSPICACE probably has a bit more scope and can come out on top. Having been given plenty to do, he just failed to catch Gallic Destiny on his debut at Kempton last month and the third and fifth have both won since. Mishko and Swilken may do better in handicaps and the market is best watched with regard to Focail Mear and Roxy Hart.
