Richard Hannon's Due Respect, holds some fancy entries including the Royal Lodge, Dewhurst and the Racing Post Trophy. He is sure to have learnt from his debut and he is taken to lose his maiden tag. Dorothy's Friend, a half-brother to a couple of winners, faces a stiff task on his debut and no matter what he achieves today, he looks one for the future, while Battle Chant may do better when he goes handicapping.
