        In depth

        Verdict

        A wide-open maiden that could produce its fair share of winner as the season goes on. However, Castleton showed plenty of promise in his two starts as a juvenile and will be very hard to beat if he has trained on. Lucky Spin - a half-sister to four winners - made an encouraging debut at Newbury and is very much respected as she bids to go one better today. While Night Storm, Presumptive and Madame Marie all have enough experience to ensure that there is no hanging about and will do their bit to make this a competitive heat. A market move for Keyaki will also be interesting as the daughter of Shinko Forest made a pleasing debut and will benefit from a more forceful ride today. However, Castleton holds the edge on all known form to date and a repeat of his Goodwood run behind Lucky Story will be good enough to see him prevail today.
