        Verdict

        The Nazca Lines is the most experienced contender in this modest maiden event and was only beaten half a length in a nursery last time, but has already shaped as though he would be suited by further than this trip and the form of the Beverley maiden in which Sheepscar Lad and Climax both made the frame looks ordinary. MADAME BOUNTY has improved for each of her three races to date and came close to landing her maiden victory when just failing to hold on over a longer trip at Bath last month. She looks the one to beat back over this sharp 5f.
