Lord Oroko, Rain And Shade and Red Petal catch the eye here with the vote going to Red Petal. The Sir Mark Prescott-trained selection showed plenty of promise when third over course and distance on her debut and, with that run under her belt, she looks primed to go well. The winner of that race was trained by Mark Johnston and he saddles the interesting newcomer Rain And Shade today, so watch the betting for clues, while Lord Oroko's second to Encircled over a slightly longer trip here last time reads very well in the context of this race and he can go well. Overall, though, we will stick with Red Petal.
