Verdict
Several are looking to put below par efforts behind them including PUBLICIST. She returned a losing favourite at Doncaster having earlier showed promise on faster ground at Newmarket and gets another chance. Shine That Light has failed to build on a debut third at Wolverhampton while Plum Run is creeping closer but has only raced over the minimum trip so far. Highland Dandy is steadily improving without yet threatening to win and Better By Far’s earlier second at Hamilton came in soft going.
