Verdict

SHIMLA DAWN is back on a lower mark than for his only previous win over fences. Second at Kelso in November, he’s been lightly campaigned this season and is overdue another success. Palm Grey won here last year and is only a pound higher than when successful at Carlisle in December while The Clock Leary only found one too good on his first start for Donald McCain at Market Rasen. Frampton was pulled up when returning form a lengthy absence at Wincanton last month and may need another run.
