Formscan - MACCARELLU (5) has shown enough promise/ability by finishing 3rd in both outings to suggest he is more than capable of opening his account in this maiden event. ODEMAR (6) only marginally edged the 25 March meeting with that rival but will have his work cut out confirming that form. EARLY SPIRIT (8) was ridden too aggressively in that race and should also have a role to play if ridden with more restraint. VERDANT LADY (17) appeals most of the three newcomers and can't be underestimated.
