Verdict

Baawrah, Nightspot, On The Wing and Best Force have to be on the shortlist and we will take a chance on Best Force. The filly by Compton Place from the Gerard Butler yard is related to several speedy juveniles and with the yard in top form it would be no surprise to see her improve significantly on her racecourse debut. Baawrah by Cadeaux Genereux should go well as he has a smart pedigree but is bred to be suited by further so is best watched here. Nightspot is from the Roger Charlton yard who normally do well with 2-year-olds, and although he has shown some promise, he will need to do improve to take a hand in the finish here. On The Wing could also be interesting and has shown some promise in two runs so has to be respected. This is a fascinating contest which is not easy to fathom, but Best Force looks to have solid claims and could take all the beating.
