Unleashed is selected to land this on his seasonal debut where Pediment, Don't Stop Me Know and Shy are other contenders for the placings. Henry Cecils' charge reportedly improved for his racecourse debut but unfortunately got cast in his box shortly afterwards. Bred to be effective over 10 furlongs, he should have too much class for his rivals here. The form of that Leicester contest did receive a boost when the when the third won a handicap off 78 while the winner is highly regarded by connections. Pediment has race fitness on her side and while she can be taken to improve from her third placing at Windsor, she could lack the class to compete with Unleashed. The form of her Windsor seasonal debut does not look too bad, the second having run creditably in competitive handicaps subsequently. Don't Stop Me Now represents interesting connections but qualifies for a handicap mark following this. There has been some promise in her outings to date while Shy was not disgraced in a weak Kempton median auction maiden last time. Dream Esteem is worth a check in the market given Eoghan O'Neill's record with juveniles but the likelihood is that she will be more effective over further. Unleashed is the pick to land the opener.
