Analyis of the race

PREDICT was the clear form pick in this moderate maiden after seconds at Lingfield and Leicester, and looked like winning easily a furlong out. However, she idled in front in the closing stages and needed to be kept up to her work to hold the late challenge of the runner-up.

Talking Hands had been doing all his best work at the finish when seventh on his debut at Newbury last month, and he was again running on strongly late on here, suggesting that he is already crying out for a step up in trip.

Street Of Hope, who raced off the pace in two previous outings over 5f, had a lot more use made of her on this step up in trip and paid for it in the closing stages as she tied up badly in the last 150 yards.
