Verdict

An interesting novice auction stakes in which Mark Johnston holds a strong hand with Provocation and Trinity Girl. The former was only fourth on debut but the subsequent Zetland Stakes winner Max Vega was in front of him then, and there doesn't look to be anything as talented in this contest. The latter showed more when narrowly failing to justify favouritism at Wolverhampton. She is likely to make a bold bid to go one place better but preference is for HUA MULAN given that he has the better form to his name after progressing from his debut to finish second behind the well-supported Alix James at Musselburgh.
  1. Hua Mulan
