Verdict
Affordability went close on his debut back in May but has not looked like winning since. That also applies to the rest of the field so the betting may offer some clues but a token vote goes to CHAMPAGNE QUEEN. She improved with each start in maiden company and may continue that trend now handicapping. Surfina has a similar profile to the selection but Mary Brady and Rose Berry went backwards on their latest starts while Seprani was ahead of Roundabout Magic when sixth on the Polytrack here in June.
