        Verdict

        MO MHUIRNIN can take this opener at the main expense of Fortune In Faith. The selection has been running well in defeat in four starts so far and tries the polytrack for the first time. Back into maiden company here after a decent handicap effort, she can put her progessive experience to good use with a win. Fortune In Faith improved on a Sandown debut when third here last time over c&d and it is anticipated that she will come on again here and could prove a threat. This is perhaps not as competitive a race as those previously contested by Edith's Boy, who returns to the minimum trip and could go very well. Dakota Hills returns after a short break and also has experience on the track and is another who can show us more for this third run and get competitive. Desert Strike should prove best of the debutantes but for today we prefer the claims of Mo Mhuirnin.
