None of these stand out and Early Dawn hasn’t raced for over a year now having finished fourth in both outings last term. Jumeirah Street occupied the same finishing position at Newcastle but that was back in March so a speculative vote goes to HEIDI to find the necessary improvement with a comeback run at Salisbury under her belt. Duchess Of Avon will know more on the back of a modest debut effort at Chelmsford and makes most appeal of the remainder.
