An open-looking maiden with the tentative vote going to Man Of Vision ahead of Termsandconditions and Noojoom. The selection was a good third on his debut in a decent-looking contest last month, and he should have come on for that first experience. He is bred to get further than this mile, however from his good draw he could be able to make use of his stamina and get the rest of these on the stretch. Noojoom has to be respected from her high-class yard, and if improving on her fair sixth in a very hot maiden at Newbury, she must go close. The extra furlong today should suit her so she looks a big danger. Newcomer Termsandconditions comes from a stable in good form and with a good record at the track so must be watched for signs of confidence although this looks a tough introduction, whilst Fowey was an expensive purchase but looks as though she will need more time to develop. Ridgewell looks sure to come on for her recent debut so must enter calculations, however we will return to Mick Channon's Man Of Vision as our tentative choice.
