An interesting start to proceedings with three juveniles defending an unbeaten record. Mind Of Madness beat a previous winner easily on debut in a Class 3 at Newmarket but the form has sent out mixed messages. ADAAY quickened in the style of a useful performer at Newbury and is fancied to get the better of David Brown's charge and Natural Order, who made a winning start over 5f at Doncaster. Red Connect already looks exposed but Sallabeh might be worth watching for future reference. Her yard won this last year and she's a half-sister to three winners.
