Verdict

RA Junior is the clear form pick but there are a number of interesting newcomers to be wary of and they include the likes of Wajaha and Mid Wicket. The selection showed a fair level of form on debut at Sandown when only beaten a length despite running very green. He stepped up on what he achieved there at the same venue next time over a mile when chasing home the well regarded Four Winds. An ordinary maiden should prove to be a formality. Emirates Roadshow should have benefited for his debut at Yarmouth where he raced a shade too keenly for his own good. That appeared to be an above average race and he retains entries for a number of the top juvenile contests and must be on the short-list. A number of the newcomers make appeal on paper but the most interesting is Wajaha who also held an entry for the Oh So Sharp Stakes on this card. She's well related and is one to keep a close eye on but RA JUNIOR sets a fair standard and receives the nomination.
