Verdict
In a modest maiden, Molly Marie gets the call ahead of Love Me Tender and Aegean Dancer. Molly Marie and Love Me Tender are both rated 71, which is well ahead of all bar Aegean Dancer based on the recent form of their opponents. For us, the former gets the call as the fact that the latter now races in blinkers is seen as a negative. Aegean Dancer has done little wrong in two starts and is entitled to some thought in a modest race, while Premier Grand would hold a possible place claim on his best form, but he has not raced for two years. Once again, though, the vote goes to Molly Marie.
