Another trappy maiden here for punters to call and again the market will be a good guide as to what is expected but the principals look to be Stonecrabstomorrow, Princess Society and Salisbury World look the three to concentrate on with the confident vote going to Stonecrabstomorrow. The selection has been second on all his runs to date but a reproduction of his latest effort which saw him just run out of it close home by Hipocrisy sets the standard and he need only run up to that mark to score. Princess Society rates the main danger as she showed a modicum of ability ion two runs to date last season, she is sure to appreciate the step up in trip and in receipt of the mares allowance she could go well. Salisbury World would have a chance on her best form but she disappointed for no apparent reason last time and has been done no favours by the draw so she looks worth taking on. Tod Sloan has had plenty of chances and is another with place claims but again he looks vulnerable to a less exposed type. The remainder have shown very little and are readily opposed and for the winner we return to Stonecrabstomorrow.
