Verdict

Mrs Kepple is expected to take this maiden although she will need to be on her game to see off Midnight Tycoon and Extra Mark. Mark Johnston's daughter of Kings Best is closely related to useful juvenile Red Power so there is every reason to suggest that she will precocious enough to take her first racecourse bow and she looks to have an ideal draw. Midnight Tycoon may only have cost 7000 guineas but she is related to the speedy Midnight Escape so there should be no shortage of early on view. Extra Mark is another son of Mark Of Esteem and is a half brother to Steely Dan. That horse has become a much better three-year-old so we will oppose. Mister Bell is related to a number of winning juveniles while Mochaccino was cheaply bought. Kristikhab showed little on debut. Mrs Kepple is awarded the selection.
