Verdict

Not a maiden that will take much winning and ROMAN CRYSTAL might be the way to go as she leaves the impression she has a bigger effort in her. Ponte Carlo's best run has come on the all-weather but he looks a big player in this company. Beechwood Glory and newcomer Lone Striker are also of interest.
