In depth
Verdict
Radlett Lady, A Teen and Blue Moon Hitman look to be the principals here and the nomination is given to A Teen. The selection is a course and distance winner who will not be inconvenienced by the drop to the minimum trip after running well over 6 furlongs last time behind Shirley Oaks on this track. The booking of Paul Hanagan catches the eye and from a good draw he looks the one to beat. Radlett Lady is in good form and won last time out, but she was all-out to do so that day and she may find a couple too good in what looks a more difficult race. Blue Moon Hitman ran well last time behind Radlett Lady but there is nothing to suggest that he can reverse the placings here. Of the remainder, Pompey Blue is out of form but he is eased in grade here so he could make the frame, but A Teen has plenty in his favour here and is taken to score.
