Verdict
Tricky little maiden, but quite a few come in to this with poor form. Forever Dylan, returning from chasing is expected to take the field along here, with the selection MASTERSON , in second. The Gordon Elliott-trained gelding was better on stable debut earlier this month and can come on for the run.
