A very difficult race to assess but Iam Foreverblowing has the most experience and best form on offer, so we will take the sensible option and side with her to come home in front of Come Good and Sarah Brown. The selection has raced twice in public, putting up a useful effort behind Polly Alexander first time and then being well beaten by Lady Filly at Salisbury last time. This will be her first outing on decent ground and she will improve for that, while the form of the Lady Filly race is working out well enough, so she should prove too strong for the remainder here. Come Good is sent here by Richard Hannon, whose two-year-olds always merit respect. However, a 20 length last of five at Windsor last week did not suggest that the colt would be up to winning next time, despite anticipated improvement. Unraced Sarah Brown reads well as far as breeding is concerned, being a half-sister to dual 2-y-o 5f winner Mister Marmaduke, and it will be interesting to see how she performs on debut, but for the winner we return to the experience of Iam Foreverblowing.
