Verdict

Cases can be made for several but NOBLE DAWN is the most striking candidate, making her handicap debut off what could turn out to be a lenient mark. She did the job well on the all-weather when last seen in December, conditions won't be a problem (not beaten far on heavy ground at Haydock on sole turf start) and Jim Crowley is an eye-catching jockey booking. Mephisto and Arij are the main dangers.

  1. NOBLE DAWN (GER)
  2. MEPHISTO (IRE)
  3. ARIJ (IRE)
