Verdict
Dissavril looked one to follow when landing a Listed bumper at Market Rasen at the start of the year but she’s disappointed in subsequent outings. Our Dot's Baby has found the obstacles getting in the way since making a winning start to life under Rules at Ffos Las but could figure with a clear round. EVIDENCE DE THAIX was soon left behind at Lingfield last month but that was her first run following a lengthy absence and she should leave that form well behind as she gains experience. Keeping Faith and Stream Lady are both worth a second look after just one run in a bumper.
