2.35: DAWLAH came up against a useful colt in Traikey on her only start last year and was not fully fit when a short-priced second on her reappearance. As a maiden , she receives weight from most of her rivals and can overcome Mary's Way, whose debut success was in modest company.

3.05: Not many of this 20-strong field are in form and the two to catch the eye are Brave Edge and SIR JOEY, 6-1 and 8-1 respectively in Ladbrokes morning betting. The selection has a fine record at this track and made spectacular late progress to be third in a more competitive event at Newmarket last time.

3.40: PRESENTING can confirm his Derby credentials. Undefeated in four runs, he put up a fast time in his most recent outing despite running out a very easy winner. Unlike the selection, who is by Mtoto, Pipe Major, the 2,000 Guineas fourth, is not certain to stay the trip, while Annus Mirabilis put up his best performance on the softer going at Doncaster for Celtic Swing's Racing Post Trophy. He has been backed for the Derby in recent days as has Salmon Ladder on the basis of excellent homework with the Lingfield Trial runner-up, Riyadian
