Verdict
There is a fair bit of deadwood here and it is not difficult to narrow the field down to just a handful of serious contenders. However, choosing between these is no easy task and slender preference is for Peyto Princess over Gallery Breeze, Cayman Breeze and Temper Tantrum. The selection is a late maturing type who has thrown away her chances on more than one occasion by failing to settle during the early stages of her races. However, she put in her best effort for a while when Shane Kelly was in the saddle on her when she finished fourth in a hotly contested course and distance handicap a fortnight ago; the form of which was given a solid boost when Acorozado won at Southwell next time out. The daughter of Bold Arrangement finished well behind the leaders on that occasion and is now 5lb better-off with Gallery Breeze for less than a length beating - so has solid claims of reversing the placings. Temper Tantrum, along with Zak Factor and the back-to-form Bint Makbul are others who will not be too far away at the finish but, at the likely prices, Peyto Princess also looks worth a small interest and edges a very narrow vote.
