A disappointing result (went off favourite) when beaten just under 3l at Vaal two months ago in a maiden plate; from top yard and winless in four starts but has shown promise with second her top showing; Craig Zackey booked.

J: R Munger

Sire can inject some quality; newcomers from this stable regularly hit the target; from the same family as Chariot Of Fire, a winner over 7½f; should be in the mix with signs of encouragement in profile and her sire suggests the distance might suit.

Verdict

A tricky puzzle to solve but the suggestion is BANANA SPLIT. She is the pick of the debutants. Bold Skitt runs for a top stable, The Reason isn't out of it, and Takeachanceonme is a newcomer with decent breeding.
