    Verdict

    Rapidity was really impressive when winning on his handicap bow at Kempton and is taken to defy his penalty. Inontime could be the one for the forecast although Traitor's Gate is respected. The selection showed a modicum of ability in three turf maidens but produced a really impressive performance on his handicap bow in running out a 6 length winner. His ability to handle this surface has to be taken on trust but it's a chance well worth taking. Inontime qualified for a mark when finishing second to Royal Applord in a course and distance maiden and looks to be on a reasonable mark if she can continue to head in the right direction. Traitor's Gate was back in sixth that day but was having his first start since November and could take closer order here. They're of interest but it's hard to get away from Rapidity.
