Forecasts

Classify (7/4), Pugin (11/4), Aesop (7/2), Believe Jack (7/1), Loved Out (16/1), Sage Advice (18/1), Cursu Mina (28/1)

Verdict

Not the strongest maiden and one in which Classify should hold strong claims. His debut second at Roscommon had plenty promise in it and there's likely improvement to come. BELIEVE JACK probably ran into a useful pair on debut at Gowran Park (form boosted by both since) and Ellmarie Holden's gelding can improve up in trip on second start and hold decent claims here. Loved Out and Pugin – a rare Gigginstown runner on the Flat these days – offered something to work with on their first starts and also rate as possible improvers.
  1. Believe Jack
  2. Classify
  3. Loved Out
