TRUE BELIEVER was making her handicap debut when headed close home at Doncaster last time. She can race off the same mark today and Mark Johnston’s unexposed filly looks the one to beat. Maiden winner Secretarial was well beaten at Beverley on her handicap bow though this looks less competitive while Dawaaween went close in a lower grade at the same Beverley fixture on her first outing for James Bethell. Iconic Code’s recent second at Pontefract came over a longer trip and better is expected from Let Her Loose dropping back to a mile today.
