        Verdict

        In the seller we will side with Looking North ahead of Nico's Dream and Bermuda Beauty. There is not too much wrong with Nico's Dream's efforts so far in the context of this race and, dropping to this grade for the first time, he is respected, but Looking North's best efforts so far can be rated roughly on a par with his and, given that she is proven on going with give in it, she too can go well on her first venture into this company. As such, she gets the vote. Saint Bernadette is related to 11 winners at various trips and should be noted in the betting. Bermuda Beauty possibly needs to improve to score, but watch for support, while Sweetly Sharp is in the right grade but might be vulnerable to one or two seller debutants. Finally, much as Frankie Dettori has been booked for Bayhope, his racecourse debut told us little. Once again, then, in a race where the betting can provide a few clues, we will side with Looking North.
