        Verdict

        Another tough one to call and plenty of these will pay their way as the season goes on. However, Fun To Ride appeals as the one to be on for now and she is just preferred over Three Secrets, who will raise the roof if she is successful for Peter Chapple-Hyam's legions of supporters on his return to Newmarket as a trainer. Majorca will also be a popular choice with the inimitable Frankie Dettori doing the steering and a move for this Green desert colt can virtually be assured if consideration of his trainer's record at the meeting is taken in. While Soldiers tale is bred for the job and is another to monitor as he makes his belated debut. However, Fun To Ride did very little wrong in either of her first couple of starts and, with the handy 5lb fillies allowance, she has a cracking chance to get her season off to a flyer today. Three Secrets was highly tried last season and was far from disgraced in finishing seventh in the Lowther when she was last seen out. However, there is the suspicion that she as flattered and is taken on with Fun To Ride today.
