        Verdict

        Not a lot to go on but Namroc rates an interesting bet against Grand But One, Flamjica and Artist Rifle. Alec Stewart's maiden has breeding to die for and as a relation to plenty of milers at both sides of the Atlantic; this one could be highly interesting if the market speaks in his favour. Grand But One is the form pick based on a second to Lucayan Legend at Ripon. That looked a disappointing performance at the time but the form was given a huge boost when Lucayan Legend finished second in the Britannia Stakes on Thursday. Flamjica has been highly tried in three starts. Artist Rifle hails from a yard with a 1 in 5 strike rate in three-year-old maidens this term. North Sea is much better than her racecourse form indicates. Namroc is given a tentative nod in a race that should produce many winners.
