Verdict

Cherries At Dawn ran well at Lingfield giving plenty of weight to the younger horses and is preferred to Dubawi Meeznah. But she finished just behind third-placed Samstar on that occasion and the latter has subsequently disappointed in soft going at Newbury. Suakin will appreciate the longer trip having struggled over 1m2f at Windsor and Eesha My Flower steps up from a mile. Constraint is bred for middle-distances but so is fellow newcomer LOCAL AFFAIR and the latter gets a speculative vote as a half-sister to three winners representing a yard with a good strike rate here.
