Verdict
MARTINI TIME probably bumped into a very smart winner when beaten three lengths by Ashadihan at Haydock. She would probably have finished closer but for being impeded at the start and, unless there's something special here, she should go one better. Kevin Ryan trains Ashaidihan so he'll know how he stands with the selection and the very speedily-bred Bint Aldar may well provide the main threat. Little Swift is by Kodiac out of a two-year-old winner so she should have plenty of pace while Popsies Joy needed the experience at Newcastle and is likely to have come on plenty for the run. Jessie B Goode is another who should have speed to burn and is an interesting newcomer.
