      Verdict

      Formerly trained in Ireland, TAYLORED was only beaten a head by the odds-on favourite in a maiden at Beverley on his debut for David O’Meara and can go one better in this. Waltzing Queen posted her best effort so far when runner-up at Lingfield back in February and Laura Pearson’s allowance helps her cause while Diffident Spirit has been gelded since last in action in December. Bluebird Day may prove best of the remainder.
