Verdict

Kingman-colt DUNAMASE makes plenty of appeal on paper and hails from a yard that has an excellent record in this maiden, with subsequent pattern winners Too Darn Hot and Arrest taking this in recent seasons, so he shades the vote over another likely newcomer Wild Nature, who is also by Kingman but has already been gelded.

  1. DUNAMASE (IRE)
