Verdict

There have been stronger maidens at the track and this should chiefly concern Wild Acclaim and YALAWIN, with the latter getting the nod. Roger Varian is often successful when raiding from Newmarket and his colt has the best CV in the field here. The drop back to 6f and application of a hood looks a good move and can pay dividends, though there is slight concern about him on the forecast fast ground. Wild Acclaim looks next best of those to have raced and does handle the grounf, while Noble Sword and Hitchcock can improve. Unusually, there doesn't look to be an obvious debut threat in the race, although Butterworth Brow is perhaps the most interesting and merits a market check.
