Verdict

Not the easiest maiden to assess and it could be worth siding with James Tate's well-related Starman filly GALILEO STAR to make a winning debut, especially if the market vibes are positive. Form pick River Nile could have a big say though if shrugging off a lesser effort at Pontefract, while Poor Relation is not out of things either.
