      Verdict

      This looks a race to keep an eye on for the future with a number of unexposed fillies on show. It's hard to rule anything out categorically but LITTLE AVON was backed into favouritism to make a winning Leicester debut on her sole juvenile start and looks the type to make up into a decent three-year-old. The Beckett yard is going along nicely and she is just preferred to Shufoog who boasts a similar profile for William Haggas and can surely only improve on her debut success on the Polytrack. Kilim is noteworthy on handicap debut and Wings Of Esteem is another to take note of as she faces her first experience of turf, both promising runs to date having come on the Southwell fibresand.
