In a wide open maiden the shortlist is made up of BARKSTON ASH, Mandy's Hero and Palindromic and preference is for the first mentioned. The Gelding ran as green as grass on debut before getting the hang of things to finish third of six. The first two home looked above average and having beaten home a subsequent he can improve and get off the mark. Mandy's Hero was expected to win on debut and was only just denied that first time up win. The form has some strength to it and while his yard is in form he has to be considered. Palindromic also comes here off the back of a solid debut but that was on the polytrack at Kempton so while the form lines look good we wait to see if he is effective on turf. Master Macho has run some good races in defeat but is beginning to look exposed in this company so a better bet looks to be Barkston Ash.
