In depth
Verdict
A competitive field goes to post for the first on the card with many in form rivals in opposition including Precious Mystery, Ivy Moon and Jarraaf and we will take a chance on Precious Mystery The three year old won well last time out when defeating Spectacular Hope and although this is more competitive he will not be far away if he acts on the surface. Ivy Moon rates the main danger he was a fair third behind Boing Boing last time and the step up in trip is sure to suit. The top weight Jarraaf is another that could go well he was a fair fourth behind Borrego last time but he remains a maiden after 9 starts so is opposed on this occasion. Of the remainder Maureen Ann is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with Precious Mystery.
