Verdict
FORESHORE found a less fancied stablemate too good at Doncaster when dropped down in trip for his reappearance and first start after wind surgery. Headgear is applied to today and Karl Burke’s charge should go close again. Only Alone missed an engagement on the soft ground at Hamilton yesterday and makes her handicap debut having won a novices' race at Beverley while Barbarella finished in front of What A Business and Iva Reflection when runner-up at Newcastle and could also figure. Felicia Blue has the beating of Rebel Soldier Boy on running in novice company last year and makes her handicap debut along with Hostelry.
