      Verdict

      Dragon Beat floundered in soft ground over 6f at Doncaster last time but was runner-up over the minimum trip at Thirsk before that. Rocket Action made a promising start when placed at Windsor and is not out of this while Haighfield may find enough improvement to figure given her sprinter’s pedigree. Spiritually is related to a host of winners but fellow newcomer BACKSTREET GIRL is a half-sister to a couple of smart sprinters and Roger Varian’s filly gets a tentative vote to make a winning debut.
