Verdict
Petit Filous has the best piece of form on offer but was still beaten over seven lengths when third at Chelmsford. Champagne Pink looks the most likely improver of the others with racecourse experience but a purely speculative vote goes to a newcomer in such a weak maiden. Stan Moore sent out the winner in 2014 so Allegheny Bay could go well but MR MINERALS is a half-brother to a winner and is also preferred to Deliberator and Trautmann.
