In depth
Verdict
Sir Mark Prescott's juveniles are needing their first outings and so we expect Confidential Lady to improve for her debut run and she can beat Fenners and Daedal. This daughter of Singspiel did all her best work at the end when third to Original Source up at Hamilton. That was over the six furlong trip and she should relish the extra distance today. Fenners also made a very promising start to his racing career, he ran very green in the early stages but stayed on well to finish third behind Korolieva at Thirsk. As with the selection there should be plenty of improvement to come. Daedal was beaten six lengths behind Royal Power at Thirsk last time, and with normal progression may be able to get into the money. George's Flyer looks the pick of the others, but with the trip looking ideal for Confidential Lady she gets our vote.
