Verdict
DONNYBROOK will be all the rage here despite her excellent debut coming over 6f on Polytrack. There's no reason to believe she won't act on this surface and she can go one better. Main Reef must have been showing something at home in the spring as he started odds-on favourite on his debut at Musselburgh in May but was well beaten and has changed yards. His former handler saddles Baileys Blues, who finished last of four on his debut on heavy ground at Nottingham but should make progress while the market should give us clues to the newcomers with Molly Show, who is related to four winning two-year-olds, perhaps the best of them.
