oddschecker Verdict
A weak affair in which TAJ CROWN looks the one to beat. Runner-up in a claimer here recently, the Ken Condon-trained filly can go one better. A lightly-raced daughter of New Bay, her bare form and a rating of 68 wouldn't usually be good enough to land a maiden, but this contest shouldn't take much winning. She managed to take a significant step forward when upped in distance at this venue last time and this extra yardage may help. Blissful Bonita, who showed improved form when fifth in a handicap here recently, is another that has to enter calculations. Winning hurdler Faithful Follower has place chances at the very least.
Prediction: 1st Taj Crown, 2nd Blissful Bonita, 3rd Faithful Follower
