In depth

Verdict

It¿s another maiden and we have this between My Obsession, Days Of My Life and Rationale with Days Of My Life being our choice. He is an 80,000-euro, Daylami-colt out of Truly Yours. His trainer, Roger Charlton has an excellent record with his two-year-olds and his breeding suggests he will have no trouble with the trip or the ground. The biggest threat comes from those that have already seen a racecourse. My Obsession was placed twice in maidens last year; he may have to settle for a place again today. Rationale was an eye-catching fifth in a Lingfield maiden earlier this month after being slowly away. He will be fit from that run and will have benefitted from the experience. He represents the main threat to our selection Days Of My Life.
