    Verdict

    This looks between a couple of recent C&D maiden winners. Smileswithhiseyes was getting weight from the hot favourite Misfer last time and took advantage when popping up at 33/1. NINGARA was a more impressive winner when scoring with plenty in hand last month and he gets the nod to follow-up on his handicap bow. First Sargeant and Misleading Promise have a bit to find to get involved though the former has more scope for improvement.
