Verdict

DAWN DELIVERS was well supported on her debut at Leopardstown but couldn't quite hold the late thrust of Lethal Steps. She can go one better though third-placed Battle Of Jericho was only just over a length behind and will have come on a bundle for the experience. The latter's yard also run Fleet Review, who wasn't fancied on his opening run at Leopardstown in May and ran accordingly, and U S Navy Flag, who has been running in better company. Caffe Macchiato attracted support here last month but looks as though he needs further while Point Zero showed up well for a long way at Navan.
