Michael Jarvis sends out an interesting contender in the shape of Dawn Sky, who gets the nod over Wing Express and Hazarayna. There is also likely to be more to come from Wild Gardenia, who looked to be in need of the outing on here reappearance last month, so can be expected to be a lot sharper today. The daughter of Alhaarth qualifies for a handicap mark after this and will be interesting in that sphere. Not much was expected from Hazarayna when she was introduced at Lingfield 23 days ago, but she emerged a clear second best behind a well regarded type of Godolphin's. Sure to have benefitted from the experience, Henry Cecil's filly can make her presence known and a bold attempt looks assured. However, Dawn Sky - a 100,000gns purchase - really looks the part on paper and can be expected to start paying her way before too long. A half-sister to Arc winner Marienbard, the daughter of Fantastic Light coped well with soft ground on her debut and comes here with a live chance of getting off the mark at only the second time of asking.
