Verdict
Fiveoclock Exress would not have to be anything out of the ordinary to make a winning debut. Don't Tell Rosey has done nothing to suggest he is up to winning a maiden, while Blonde En Blonde, was too green to do herself justice on her debut. She should know more this time, but this looks set to go the way of Wimple, who takes a huge drop in class.
