In depth

Verdict

Izita Star has a decent flat pedigree and having shown promise when second over two miles on her debut at Warwick may well do better back in distance today so she gets the vote to go one better here at the main expense of Benmore Boy and First Blue. The last mentioned represents a yard that does well with their runners in bumpers but he was well beaten first time out and may be best watched unless the market speaks in his favour. Definite Dancer showed promise on his debut and should appreciate the shorter trip today so makes more appeal than Pic of The Paddock, who is stoutly bred. Arthur Parker showed little sign of ability on his debut but does comes from a yard in form so cannot be completely discounted. Henrietta Knight's Benmore Boy is bred to make the game over fences but may find this trip on the short side so preference is for Izita Star.
