Verdict
Zach's Harmoney can land the opener at the expense of Hessian and Split Briefs. The selection is relatively unexposed compared to some of his rivals and has showed signs of ability in maiden races in the past. His form when second to Buxton at Wolverhampton back in May is good enough to win a moderate contest like this and as he is now dropped in grade he has to have a live chance of breaking his maiden tag here. Hessian is another that drops into claiming company for the first time. Again her form in maiden company on the all weather during the winter months was good enough to win in this grade and she was not discredited on her latest run in a maiden handicap at Brighton either so has ro be respected. Split Briefs can run into a place as his fourth behind Muhannak at Wolverhampton last time out was eye catching and if repeating that form then he has place claims once more. But for the winner we return to Zach's Harmoney.
