Verdict
SKYLINE was beaten a head at Doncaster on his introduction then ran well for a long way in a Listed contest at Cheltenham. Unless there is something decent amongst the newcomers he should take this. Foxtrot Juliet wasn't beaten too far on her debut here in January though never looked like winning while Balli Martine, who made a promising start at Uttoxeter, was beaten a long way at Kempton last month. Dazibao cost £58,000 as a three-year-old and has a smart pedigree so he could prove best of the first-timers.
