      Verdict

      In the hope that Al Rayanah has franked the form in the 15:10 our vote goes to her conquerour last time in EXOPUNTIA. Julie Fielden's filly showed a liking for soft ground with that course and distance win and hasn't been harshly punished with a 4lb rise, especially as she's relatively unexposed and could go on from that first success in 12 starts. Hellenio looks the biggest threat to our pick now tried in a tongue-tie having failed to justify strong support in the race won by our selection, but he might just be better over seven furlongs and unlike Exopuntia remains a maiden. Lady Brickhouse is another who still hasn't managed to taste success but she did stay the mile well enough at Southwell to open up more opportunities while Astrodonna is 7lbs below her course and distance win of 2009 and needs a look in the market.
