Verdict

Owl Creek Bridge and Arch Melody have scored between the flags this year and the former has the pedigree to do well at this game. Rock On Dandy has a penalty for his Flat victories and hasn't shown much in two starts over hurdles while High Kicker also has extra for her victories on the level and she appears to favour faster ground. MILOMYNIT is a typical Henry De Bromhead slow-burner and is likely to do better when getting a test of stamina but this is a poor maiden and the half-sister to several smart performers should be good enough to get off the mark. Bluegrass Princess may prove best of the remainder.
