Verdict
Bubbling Fun has the ability to win a race of this nature so must be feared along with Lake Diva, but Trebello and Reem One are two very interesting newcomers, and the last named gets the verdict. Michael Jarvis is not averse to winning with debutantes, and this daughter of Rainbow Quest will not have to be too special to land this event. Trebello was a reasonably expensive purchase and being by Robellino should relish every yard of the trip. Bubbling Fun has contested some very competitive handicaps this season and hasn't been disgraced. There should be a maiden in her and if the newcomers are nothing special, she could be the one to capitalise. Lake Diva showed she had improved from two to three when finishing a promising third Backgammon earlier this month, another bold run can be expected. The betting market will be invaluable here, but we expect Reem One to be well to the fore and she get the decision.
