A real mixture here and plenty that have shown glimpses of form although the amount of headgear on display probably sounds a note of caution though. Zapateado caught the eye last time and was better than the bare result while Lady Of Authority will be suited by a test like this. Call Dawn is eased in grade and looks the type to be suited by this trip with Olive Mabel back on the AW not written off despite a lowly mark with some of her earlier form giving her a chance. MIDNIGHT BLUE looks a typical Sir Mark Prescott improver though with her pedigree far more in keeping with this trip than those she ran over as a juvenile; the market will surely point the way to her chance.
