Verdict

As is often the case in nurseries, this is as much of a guessing game as anything else. It is difficult to be wildly enthusiastic about any of this nine 'strong' field based upon what we've witnessed on track so far. However, there has to be a winner, and one horse will need to spring forward, so a speculative dart is thrown at the filly DARK BLUE in the hope that she's been very slow to come to hand and might well be able to reverse Brighton placings with Jo's Girl.
  1. Dark Blue
