          In depth

          Verdict

          This consists of exposed types and a chance is taken with Dodona, who doesn't appear badly treated off a mark only 4lb higher than when last successful. She comes here in good form and is more likely to run her race than the majority of these. The maiden Lyrical Way has bits and pieces of form and is at least open to some improvement, while Ashton Vale is also respected, mainly because of the connections. The well handicapped Junikay would have a chance if anywhere near his best, but he seems out of sorts at present.
