In depth
Verdict
A large field goes to post for this maiden and as usual in these types of events the market will prove all important but the principals look to be Great Exhibition, Bluebok and Helibel and the confident vote goes to Great Exhibition. The selection was a fair third behind Aricia last time that sets a fair standard and with conditions in his favour he is taken to win again. Bluebok rates the main danger he was a fair fifth on his debut last season behind Flip Flop And Fly but but he has not been seen since and he may just need the run after a 439 day absence. Helibel is another that could go well she will appreciate the step up in trip but she is quiet exposed and may be seen to better advantage in handicaps. Of the remainder Magic Spin is a well bred sort from a shrewd yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market but for the winner we return to Great Exhibition.
