Verdict
Asiatic, Obay and Light Wind are the form principals here and we will side with the last named. Amanda Perrett's filly showed the benefit of her Salisbury debut when easily landing a Chepstow maiden last time. It is difficult to know just how good the form is as she beat a newcomer in that contest, but the third home was beaten quite a long way so it may turn out to be quite decent. Asiatic had some excellent form last season and ran a promising race at Royal Ascot on his return, that was off a mark of 86, so on official rating he is in with every chance. Obay finished runner up to the in form Portrait Of A Lady at Newbury last time and looks best of the rest. So, in conclusion, Asiatic and Obay are decent class performers but Light Wind has more scope for improvement and gets the nod.
