A typically competitive apprentice contest, this doesn't appeal as a race for large stakes. Mountain Fox showed up well at Gowran Park last time out on his handicap bow and may go well again despite a fairly hefty hike, while top-weight Bainne continues to be competitive but is creeping up in the ratings without winning. Jealika owns a decent strike rate and with a habit of going well fresh is worthy of a spot on any shortlist but this might go the way of A LIKELY STORY. The Rosewell House inmate remains a maiden but has been there or thereabouts on plenty occasions and has a decent shot at a winning start in handicaps now. Complicit and Rose Anjou are others worthy of consideration.
