150/1
Beaten over 17½L and 24L in two attempts at maidens so far and would need to leave both of those efforts well behind him in order to prove competitive here.

10/1
0/8 so far in his career and now returns to maiden company from handicaps. Not obvious reason why he should fare any better than when coming up short last time he was tried in such a race, as he hasn't seemed to show much recent progression.

11/4
Seems to have improved with each start so far and went within a neck of getting off the mark at Lingfield last time. Clearly relished this trip on that occasion and is lightly-raced enough to suggest that there should be further improvement in him.

22/1
Pastoral Pursuits filly out of a Bates Motel mare who is a half-sister to three winners, including at intermediate distances. Can't be totally discounted running in a relatively weak-looking race on debut.

Cthulhu32
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-11| J: M Dwyer| T: W R Muir
14/1
Ran a solid race to finish fifth on debut at Lingfield last time, but was over 4L behind Zack Mayo on that occasion and is unlikely to be able to improve past him on only her second career start.

25/1
Clearly didn't mind the step up to 1m2f for her second start last time and should be able to stay this far having finished second to a clear-cut winner on that occasion. That was only a small field affair and she was perhaps slightly flattered by the result.

Silver Link259
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-11| J: Jim Crowley| T: M P Tregoning| OR:  79
4/6
Beaten favourite last time out but has looked more than capable of winning a maiden on the basis of her performances both in this sphere and handicaps. Makes her all weather debut but should handle it fine.

Forecasts

Silver Link (4/6), Zack Mayo (11/4), Ingleby Mackenzie (10/1), Cthulhu (14/1), Beauchamp Rose (22/1), Master Me (25/1), Toast Of London (150/1)

Verdict

There could be more to come from ZACK MAYO, who made a slow start to his career but ran a good race to finish a narrow second on his all-weather debut last time out at Lingfield, and looks like a horse who should be capable of further improvement. Silver Link is another who has shown enough to suggest she should be capable of winning an all-weather maiden of this nature, while the market will probably prove informative as to Beauchamp Rose's chances.
