Verdict

FOSOOL may be able to make it third time lucky in the finale where she's preferred to Light The Light and Lucky Dancer. The selection is having her third run for her third trainer in as many starts and clearly isn't straightforward. However, she has been well backed and also has enough raw ability to win a maiden such as this and if anyone's going to get a tune out of her then it will be Spencer. Keepsgettingbetter ran well at a big price in a Wolverhampton seller and should go well for his new yard whilst Light The Light may benefit from the experience of her debut and for stepping up in trip as may Elisario who was staying on pleasingly over seven at Kempton when last seen. Boss Hog has been in fair form at Southwell and is not without a chance if adapting. The market will be interesting with respect to the newcomers Waldorf and Lucky Dancer but the Haggas team continues in good form and may be able to get the right tune out of Fosool.
