Verdict

Littledodayno is preferred to Reigning Monarch, Musical Script and Nell's Girl. The selection should be all the better for her recent reappearance run over 7 furlongs here last month. She signed off in good form in November and can take up from where she left off now that she reverts to her optimum distance. Musical Script regularly finishes in the frame but rarely has his head in front where it matters and a similar scenario is likely to play out tonight. A bigger danger could be Reigning Monarch who hasn't been harshly treated for a couple of fine efforts last month. He should have been freshened up by a short break, may have more to offer and has solid claims. Nell's Girl hasn't been out for a while and has yet to race on an artificial surface but she doesn't look too badly treated on the pick of her form in Ireland and could figure. The vote, though, goes to Littledodayno.
