Verdict
This appears to be quite a strong looking maiden and Rajwa can put his experience to good use and beat the newcomers My Putra and Royal Wedding. Rajwa ran a little green on his debut at Goodwood but still managed to finish just a length behind Doctor¿s Cave. The third home had been placed in decent races prior to that event so the form looks pretty solid and with improvement almost guaranteed, he will be difficult to beat today. Royal Wedding is trained by David Loder and cost 140 thousand guineas as a yearling. He is superbly bred by Kings Best out of a Blushing Groom mare and should be carefully monitored in the betting. The market will also give clues to the chances of My Putra, who was also an expensive purchase, costing 170 thousand dollars. On breeding 10 furlongs should be his best trip in time, but nevertheless he could still be capable of taking a hand in the finish here. Of the others Haunting Memories showed plenty of promise on his debut and must also be on the shortlist, but Rajwa may have the better form and is taken to oblige.
