Verdict

Another small-field affair in which Hope Is High is a strong contender for a place after showing a decent level of improvement from her first run of the season to go close over slightly further here last time. The claims of the hat-trick seeking Geetanjali are very tempting. Michael Bell's charge produced a career best when victorious at Sandown last week, which reads well in today's contest. However, the aforementioned filly must concede over a stone to the unexposed MAKTABBA. The selection showed more than enough ability in maidens to suggest she can make her mark at this level and is worth another chance at placing her underwhelming handicap debut well behind her.
  1. Maktabba
  2. Geetanjali
  3. Hope Is High
