In depth
Verdict
This is a wide open maiden in which Shamayel is given a tentative vote over Snowy Indian and Sahaadi. There is not a great deal of form to go on here so the market could provide plenty of clues, but certainly the selection makes plenty of appeal on breeding being a filly by Pivotal and if the vibes from the ring are positive then it could pay to take the hint. Snowy Indian is an Indian Ridge filly and she is another that makes plenty of appeal on her racecourse bow. Sahaadi was a fair fifth behind Kotsi at Newmarket last time and this quicker ground should suit so she looks the best of those who have seen a racecourse before. Cheviot Red is from a yard whose runners normally need their first run so she could show more today than she did on her debut. However, we will stick with Shamayel as the pick.
