In depth
Verdict
A tough maiden to call here for punters with very little public form to go on and the betting could prove all important but the principals look to be Banknote, King Of Love and Toldo and we will take a chance on Banknote. The selection was a fair fourth on his debut behind Beaver Patrol, he is sure to have learnt from the experience and under similar conditions here he will be hard to beat. King Of Love hails from a yard that has a 20 percent strike rate with its two year olds this season so this half brother to Sutton Common is worth noting in the market but he will probably be seen to better effect over a longer trip. Toldo was well beaten on her debut behind Piper Lily but is bred to make a two-year-old and is another sure to improve. Noodles is another from a yard that's two year olds improve for their first outing so he is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Banknote.
