In depth
Verdict
Kevin Ryan won the first running of this a year ago so his expensive and speedily-bred colt BAPAK PESTA is taken to make a winning debut as a high draw is the best place to be. Avec Rose, a beaten favourite on her debut at Warwick, is another drawn high and must be considered but Glen Ginnie has an inside berth and hasn't set the world alight on her two runs to date. Municipal was only third in a four-runner event at Ayr but showed plenty of ability against two race-fit rivals so with that under his belt he has to be on the short-list though a low draw just tempers enthusiasm. Fire Eyes cost an astonishing £300,000 as a two-year-old after making £43,000 as a foal. He's out of the Flying Childers winner Wunders Dream and has to be of interest.
