        Verdict

        Plenty of horses going to post for this big field maiden where it should pay to follow the top trainers. In doing so HEAVENLY DAWN gets he nod over Skyrider and Belgique. The selection was an eye catching debutant at Doncaster when staying on nicely after travelling well throughout the contest. That race was won by an older horse and now back in her own age group with a run under her belt she should go well. The same can be said about Skyrider who made her debut in a good maiden at Kempton. That was her second career run after a decent effort as a two-year-old and it looked as if she would come on for the run. She may want further but with such a big field running it may bring out her stamina. Belgique didn't quite progress from her last run but it should still see her into a place here. Others to note in a very tricky race are Eden Nights and Neptune's Girl but Heavenly Dawn gets the vote.
