Verdict

Princess Ileana, Bert's Memory and Hucking Hope look the three to concentrate on in this maiden with the vote going to Princess Ileana. The selection was a fair second on her debut behind Camissa and is sure to have come on for the experience. From a good draw and with her yard continuing in good form she is taken to score. Bert's Memory rates the main danger as she hails from a yard that can do no wrong with it's two-year-olds at present and this Bertolini filly out of 1m2f winner Meg's Memory will not have to be anything special to take a hand in the finish. Hucking Hope was a fair fourth on his debut behind Riverside Dancer and is another that is sure to improve but he is bred to be seen to better effect over a longer trip in time. Drifting Gold ran well on his debut but appeared to have regressed last time so can not be put forward with any confidence. This is a trappy affair but Princess Ileana holds solid claims and gets our vote.
