Tom Dascombe has four entries in what looks a very competitive opener though Five Amarones didn't run well enough at Bath on Monday to be considered. Martin Harley was on board Light My Fire when she won comfortably at Ripon and keeps the ride and she looks the best of her stable's runners. NO LIPPY shot out of the stalls at Doncaster and made all despite looking green. She is well enough berthed this time to repeat the process as Kinks, who also made all when completing a double at Ripon, is dawn widest of all. The latter was caught close home by Lihou at Kempton though has made great strides subsequently and may confirm the form despite her poor berth.
