Dhhamaan gets one last chance to get his head in front in this maiden with Nordic Commander and Nice Wee Girl rating the main dangers. The selection has plenty in hand on official bhb figures and although disappointing when only second behind Storey Hill, the first time visor is expected to bring about improvement and he is taken to score. Nordic Commander rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Orpen Fire. He looks sure to be suited by this longer trip and he should be watched in the market. Nice Wee Girl was a fair third behind Easy Girl last time out and is another with place claims but she has plenty to find on official bhb figure. Of the remainder Pravda Street and Orange Square are well bred newcomers from shrewd yards and are others to note in the market but Dhhamaan sets a fair standard and is taken to score.
