FORTUNES MELODY's British debut has to go down as disappointing, but she's since undergone a wind operation, so is worth another chance in a first-time tongue tie given the level of form she showed in France. Allavina found the Dawn Run at the Cheltenham Festival too competitive, but can bounce back now returning to calmer waters.
