Verdict

West Lorne must be feared but we'll take a chance with Little Wing. Jamie Osborne runs three here so a market check is advised but there was a lot to like about Little Wing's three runs in maidens in the summer. All were in well contested events at the bigger tracks and he should prove capable of better now that he's got another year on his back. West Lorne tried to make all on her debut over 7 furlongs at Wolverhampton but lacked the reserves to hold off the challenge of Mr Macattack. That was a perfectly respectable introduction, she should improve for the experience and will be fancied to score. Few of the remainder make any immediate appeal, Uno Dos Tres may be the most interesting of them, and we'll stick with Little Wing.
