In depth
Verdict
Turn Around made a pleasing debut when third at Chester behind Coquetry and giving normal improvement will be hard to beat. Blakeseven also made a pleasing debut also when fourth behind Mardoof and should also come on for the run. Playing Card has also shown a modicum of ability but gives the impression he will be better over further. Doris Souter has also shown ability on occasions and must be considered as her stable has taken all before them with it's two year olds this season. Of the newcomers Silver Chime takes the eye on breeding.
