In depth

Verdict

Priory Bay, Swift Cut and Toggle are three against the field in a trappy maiden and the narrow vote is given to Priory Bay. The selection has shown enough in two runs to date to suggest he could win a race of this nature. His latest run which saw him finish sixth behind Darfour looks better now and he is taken to score. Swift Cat rates the main danger rates the main danger on his latest second behind Chief Operator and he should improve for this longer trip so he should be watched in the market. Togglw is another that could go well on his best form but the suspicion is he will be seen to better effect in handicaps. Of the remainder Genki is a well bred cold by Shekin Forest from a yard that can ready a debutante and he is another that could go well. Of the remainder Wise Decision is another debutante that catches the eye on breeding but for the winner we return to Priory Bay who is taken to put his experiance to good use.
