Verdict
The maiden contested by Autumn Melody, Heat of The Night and Arbella last time out was a pretty good contest and this looks between that trio and Great Opinions, and we will side with Autumn Melody to score. The selection finished three places and three-quarters-of-a-length behind Arbella in that maiden here on debut three weeks ago, with Heat of The Night splitting them in fourth. There should again be little to choose between the trio, but the Godolphin runner did look as though he would perhaps go on to better things than his rivals and he can show that and break his duck here. Great Opinions has two runs under his belt and is another who should go well, judged on his second to Queen Of Poland on his most recent outing at Yarmouth, but Autumn Melody has the scope to produce the goods this time.
