Verdict
I Dont Do Walkin can stroll to victory here at the main expense of Miss Versatile and Ronsai. The selection was a big positive in the market before her debut at Haydock when she was a good second behind behind Captain Dunne. It took a while for the penny to drop in that race but with the experience under her belt she should be tough to beat here, although the form of the yard is a slight concern. Miss Versatile is another that showed plenty of promise on her debut when she was second behind Affirmatively at Windsor. She has a good draw like our selection and can go well. Ronsai is an interesting newcomer from the the Richard Hannon yard and is worth a look in the market, while Lowrys Art showed enough on her debut to make her of interest. However, we are happy to side with I Don't Do Walkin who can land the prize.
