Verdict

A weak looking maiden may fall top Rio Sands, Next Best and Irish Brooke are two others to consider. The selection has an official rating of 69 following some decent placed efforts this season. His latest effort came in a handicap at Haydock when chasing home Marvellous Marvin. That winner boosted the form with an excellent run at York last week adding more weight to the argument. Next Best has nineteen pounds to find with the selection on official figures but did run some solid races in defeat last season. The newcomer Irish Brooke will not have to be anything special to figure here and is certainly one to watch closely in the market. The best of the rest could be the well exposed Johnson's Glory, but is Rio Sands repeats his last effort he should prove hard to beat
