Without a noted leader on paper, Unfailing Truth could set the tempo. Wide open race with quite a few newcomers having shown ability. MODEL GIGI (9) looks a filly with good ability. She's by Overshare for the John McArdle yard who has won a couple of jumpouts impressively. She draws well for Mott who can ride positively and take catching. FLIRTANTE (5) is a filly by Proisir on debut for the Clinton McDonald yard. Have to respect when Melham teams up with their newcomers, watch the market. LADHAR (8) is one with race experience having contested a couple of stakes races. She hasn't measured up in those but they'll hold her in good stead back to maiden company. BLUE METEOR (1) is a colt by Satono Aladdin on debut for the Ciaron Maher yard who has trialled well and has winning claims. QUEENS CODE (11) is a filly by Exceed And Excel for the Littlefield yard who has won a jumpout here and can run well despite a wide gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Model Gigi on top.
