        Verdict

        Not a very good maiden this and narrow preference is for This Ones For Eddy ahead of Ride A White Swan and Earlsmedic. The selection has a liking for quick ground and ran well behind Deera Dubai at Redcar earlier this week. The stable are shrewd so if he is well-backed then follow suit, as he should be ok with this drop in trip on this stiffer track. Tugulu disappointed last time out but previous efforts place him firmly in the mix, whilst Earlsmedic is consistent and shouldn¿t be far away once again. Forrest Star shapes as if this return to six furlongs will suit and he has run two good races of late, whilst Ride A White Swan was unable to quicken over C+D last time having travelled well for a long way. An open race, with the vote going to This Ones For Eddy.
