Master of The Race gets the confident vote to win this maiden with Borouj and Dansili Dancer rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Golden Feather last time out. That form has since been franked and he need only reproduce that effort to score. Boruj rates the main danger on his latest second behind Maccool but he just gave the impression on that occasion he would be suited by further and at likely odds he looks worth taking on. Dansili Dancer is another with place claims on his second behind nfatuate last time. However that was on a softer surface and it is hard to know how he will cope with this very quick ground. Of the remainder River Mist Image is another that is sure to improve on his debut third but he will have to improve significantly to defeat the selection Master Of the Race.
