Verdict
Just seven line up to race in this maiden, and with little in the way of good recent form to go on this should be a tricky one so a market check is advised, but we are going to side with SEAWAY who is preferred to Loch Linnhe and Baron Otto. The selection was beaten favourite when last seen almost a year ago. He has finished second three times in three starts, but there is no reason yet to question his attitude. He has run up against useful opponents on his last two starts and should have no trouble winning this ordinary maiden. Loch Linnhe makes his debut today and looks a capable sort. The three-year-old comes fresh from the John Gosden yard, who have produced two winners at this grade here already this month so he cannot be overlooked. Baron Otto showed some promise on debut almost a year ago but failed to confirm that next time. He returns today after a six month absence and can make the frame here against such modest company.
