Not a great deal of speed on paper so it may be left to one of the debutants to take it up. Tricky race to kick off the card with a few of these facing the starter for the first time. Of the raced brigade SHEMAKESMENERVOUS (3) is unlucky to still be a maiden hitting the top-five in ten of her past 11 starts and strikes a winnable contest here. Tuned up for this with a recent trial placing and maps ideally from gate two. Goes on top. ASK ME HARRY (8) has placed over this track and trip and will be rock-hard fit for this. Looms as the main danger. MUSEE DU LOUVRE (5) is on debut but has shown some ability at the trials and gets some weight relief with the 3kg claim. Keep very safe. MARBLE WARRIOR (4) is another at the races for the first time and any market support must be noted. MONSIEUR AMOUR (1) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Shemakesmenervous to finally shed the maiden tag.
