As maidens go this most certainly isn't a strong heat, with a few of these runners having compelling stories to tell having been absent from the track for extended periods of time. ANCIENT LODGING is the sole filly in the line up, but her opening effort at Salisbury indicates that she probably has far more scope for improvement than the vast majority of her male rivals, so she rates as a confident selection over a new trip which should suit her perfectly.
