    Verdict

    A number of hard to win with performers on view and from a shortlist that consists of Boomtown, Carry On Cleo and Tiger Spice, we side with the last named. William Haggas has been quick to drop the filly into this grade but she has shaped with a degree of promise despite what is very ordinary form. Carry On Cleo is tried in first time headgear and cannot be discounted from a low draw. Boomtown has left the Gainsborough Stud ownership but is still in the care of Mark Johnston. He has disappointed this term. Arabesque Dancer is surely better than the first outing suggests while Adam Eterno stays this trip adequately enough and is one to watch in the market. Giggling Monkey is best of the rest. Not a race to have the housekeeping monies on and Tiger Spice is the pick of this bunch.
