        Verdict

        BELL HEATHER has her sights lowered having finished a modest fourth at Haydock on her reappearance. But Richard Fahey’s filly is just one of a handful of unexposed types capable of going close. That includes Absolute Zero and D'niro, who both returned losing favourites on their latest outings, while White Shaheen is another dropping down in class. Chester Street and Sir Roderic may do better back over a mile today while Dubai's Secret could go well off his current mark.
