A mark of 75 could prove a bit harsh for Mistress Eva and so the tentative vote goes to Free Fallin who may be seen to better effect now handicapping; Jelly Mo and Landikhaya are just two other dangers in a tricky race. The selection probably ran his best race on his debut over this trip and whilst a mark of 72 appears a tad harsh on his first foray into nursery company, there is evidently more to come and he is expected to improve. Cracking Nick steps up in trip which may suit however his best runs have come on the all-weather and he is yet to really prove himself on turf, although this softer ground may suit. Mystic Art takes the eye with 'Frankie' booked to ride, whilst Shadow Cabinet only just failed to win last time out and should go close if reproducing that effort. Lady Rochbonne has shown plenty of ability so far and should again run her consistent race, whilst Jelly Mo, Irish Artist and Landikhaya should also improve now in nurseries. At a price Athboy Auction could go well now stepped up in trip, however we will return to Free Fallin for the winner.
