led, ridden 2f out, joined just inside final furlong, headed towards finish
awkward start and slow into stride, soon in touch, ridden and weakened over 1f out
tracked leader, effort when edged left 1f out, soon ridden to join leader, no extra near finish
tracked leaders, effort when not clear run and switched right 1f out, ran on to lead near finish, won going away
Better is expected from Dawn Lightning, who was a well beaten second on her recent debut at Leicester behind a David Evans-trained runner. The latter should have a good handle on the form and he runs two here. Si Sealy has plenty of speed in his pedigree and could figure on his first start, but UMPH was beaten only a head at Kempton a week ago and he gets the vote. Joey Hayes may need more time after fading quickly at Doncaster last week and newcomer Ermyn Flyer looks nothing special on breeding.
