Verdict
Tintawn Gold looks very interesting on her all-weather debut and is taken to beat Dante's Devine and Husky. The selection hasn't raced since September when well behind Theatre Lady. That was a poor effort but she may have been over the top by then. He previous turf form was of a decent standard and if she handles this surface she should go close at a decent price. Dante's Devine disappointed last time behind Shifty but had previously finished a close fourth behind the progressive Sorbiesharry. If he is in the right frame of mind today he should be in contention. Husky is from a yard amongst the winners and although he hasn't raced for some time he has the past form to go close. Tatweer and Go free look best of the remainder, but on this occasion we will side with Tintawn Gold.
