Everything has a chance with just 3lb separating the entire field on official ratings. Sellingallthetime was much better the last time but that nine-length romp came on Fibresand and things will be very different now, whilst connections reach for first-time blinkers to try and elicit improvement from Dream And Search. Heartstrings and Semaral have both shown glimpses of potential in respective maiden outings and both should be more at home going handicapping. The former is tempting but MAIDEN APPROACH is preferred. Richard Fahey clearly believes the key to his charge is a step-up in trip and, with Ryan Moore booked, the New Approach filly can go one better over two furlongs further than her latest solid runner-up effort over the Newcastle mile. Ralphy Lad shaped better last time and could progress again.
