      Verdict

      A maiden here and as usual in these events the market will be very informative but the principals look to be Queen Of Naples, Kimbolton and Twiglet and the narrow vote is given to Queen Of Naples. The selection showed enough in three starts last season to suggest she could win a race of this nature and with that experience behind her and her yard in form she looks the one top be on. Kimbolton rates the main danger as she is a filly By Hellisio and hails from the bang in form Henry Cecil yard and she will not need to be anything special to take a hand in the finish. Twiglet has ran with a modicum of promise in two starts to date but will be handicapped after this run and that is where her future may lie. Of the others, Partner In Crime is bred to be suited by a longer trip in time and for the winner we are happy to return to Queen Of Naples.
