Verdict
Navajo Dawn has yet to race on this surface but landed a double on the Fibresand at Southwell earlier in the month and has the beating of A Go Go and Comeatchoo on that form. Triple Spear only won a maiden at Wolverhampton last month though did so by a couple of lengths and can figure in this while Kayat finished runner-up at Newcastle last week without threatening the winner. But LIMARO PROSPECT finished less than a length behind the winner in a tougher sprint than this at Chelmsford on his handicap debut and Sir Mark Prescott’s colt looks set to open his account on that form.
