Verdict
Another competitive field goes to post for the second division of the maiden and the principals look to be Military Two Step, Regal Setting and Trilemma and we will take a chance on the newcomer Regal Setting. The colt by Kings Theater is reportedly going well at home and he will not need to be anything special to win this on his debut. Military Two Step rates the main danger he has experience on his side and a reproduction of his latest third behind Kafuwain would make him definite place claims. Trilemma is a filly by Slip Anchor but may be seen to better effect over a longer trip. Of the remainder those that have run need to show improved form to take a hand in the finish while the remaining debutantes do not stand out on breeding so we are happy to side with Regal Setting
