Market Day, gets the confident vote to win this maiden with Tenterhooks and Ishibee rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Easy Air last time out, that form looks rock solid in the context of this race and if he copes with the surface he will be very hard to beat. Tenterhooks rates the main danger on his latest second behind Babylon Sister but the drop to the minimum trip has to be of concern and for that reason he is opposed. Ishibee is another that could go well on his latest fourth behind Winning Spirit but that form has since been let down. Of the remainder Queen Noverre is from a yard that can ready a debutante and should be noted in the market but for the winner we are happy to return to Market Day.
