A maiden fillies handicap is not the best betting medium but something has to win and we will give a tentative vote to Food For Thought, Eternal Legacy and Kissi Kissi are also expected to run well. Food For Thought looked in need of a recent spin around Catterick and had shown plenty of ability last year at Wolverhampton and over course and distance. She doesn¿t look too badly treated at present and should go close in this competitive affair. Eternal Legacy has shown plenty of promise in three maidens to date and we could see this one involved in the finish on her first venture into handicap company. Kissi Kissi is not the most consistent of characters but can be given a squeak on the pick of this season¿s efforts. Opera Belle and Azerley have both hinted at better and could have got in here lightly, but Food For Thought has the best overall profile and gets the verdict
