      Verdict

      CITY ZEN's close third to Hot Streak in a Listed contest over the course and distance is comfortably the form pick though she faded quickly when attempting an extra furlong at Ayr. She gets the vote to bounce back though My Inspiration looks a threat as she made a promising start here early last month before touched off over 6f at Haydock. Royal Connoisseur was a 25/1 chance when caught close home by State Anthem over 6f at Catterick but won't be anything like that price here and has to be considered. Galvanize was fancied to make a winning debut but disappointed before a much better run over an extra furlong at Haydock so there's probably more to come.
