Maybe I Wont, Victorian Bounty and Concertmaster are all worth considering in this nursery handicap and the vote is given to Victorian Bounty. This colt won well last time at Musselburgh when beating Rebel Acclaim and as that was a significant improvement on his debut effort he is clearly going the right way. He has a decent draw and he should prove tough to beat. Maybe I Wont makes some appeal as he has been running consistently well and he lost no caste in defeat when chasing home Miss Bootylishes at Brighton last time. Concertmaster won well last time and his yard are in good form so he could go well at a price, while Carolina Blini is another with each-way prospects. This looks a tricky race for punters to fathom but Victorian Bounty makes most appeal and he can get his head in front.
