Verdict
The lightly raced Crispian has to be respected and may handle the ground being a son of Hernando but, being out of a Darshaan mare, he may prefer faster ground and preference is for Tempelstern who gets the vote ahead of Natural Action. The last mentioned has shown promise in all four starts but has yet to prove her suitability to ground this soft and may be best watched. Woolfall Rose is bred to be useful but needs to improve on her debut effort to trouble the selection, while River Deuce has a bit to find on official ratings. Tempelstern is becoming a shade frustrating and expensive to follow but looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to open his account and is taken to do so here.
