Verdict
Arous and Bon Nuit are two very interesting debutantes, but the form horse has to be Indiena, who is selected to beat Rasseem.Brian Meehan's filly has been knocking on the door all season, and put up another sterling display when second in a very competitive nursery at Doncaster last time. She also boasts good form in a valuable conditions event, so must have strong claims in this lower grade. Rasseem is not one of the better Godolphin juveniles, but has put in some decent efforts. The most recent was at Redcar when finishing a close up third behind the gambled on Amalie and that form should be good enough to take a hand in the finish of this modest contest. Arous is trained by John Dunlop and is a well bred daughter of Desert Prince, while Bon Nuit hails from the Geoff Wragg yard and related to numerous winners, both should be carefully monitored in the betting exchanges. Indiena though has shown enough to warrant a confident vote.
