      Verdict

      It's dangerous to oppose a Richard Hannon juvenile this season and after his ARDOUR ran a promising debut the verdict has to land on that one although his newcomer Madame Solitaire has to be considered despite looking the second string and Codemaster is another interesting newcomer. Staying on when missing out by less than a length on debut the selection has plenty of winning relations so should improve on that debut effort now he knows his job that bit better. Madame Solitaire is bred for sprinting and is related to one who scored on debut as a two-year-old so should give a good account of herself but the presence of Richard Hughes on her stable mate swings the vote to that one. Codemaster will need further in time but in this line-up looks a contender while Lowawatha could feature for a trainer/jockey combination that have plenty of success. This maiden looks to belong to Richard Hannon and out of his pair the vote goes to Ardour to build on a most promising debut.
