Verdict

It could be hard to find a weaker contest than this however with a gun to the head we will select one of the newcomers Worbarrow Bay ahead of the other debutante Doctor Kilbride and Henry Daly's Lit Up. Watch the market for clues is the advice in this open race and any move for the selection Worbarrow Bay could be worth taking heed of. Getting weight from the whole field, this daughter of Zaffaran will be seen to better effect when encountering obstacles but could be up to taking this weak event as a bonus. Doctor Kilbride's flat pedigree means that he should have the necessary speed for this contest and he looks a danger, along with Lit Up who improved on his debut run next time up. If continuing that improvement he should be there or thereabouts, whilst there may be improvement to come from the once-raced pair He's My Brother and Ivory Fair although there will need to be. In a dire contest, Worbarrow Bay gets the tentative selection.
