SHADOWS IN THE SKY arrives here on the back of a string of tame efforts but he's now just 1 lb higher than for his Hexham success during the autumn and, moreover, it would be no surprise were he to bounce back on this debut for the James Owen yard. It will be interesting to see if the market speaks in his favour and, if so, the hint should be taken. Special Dragon did well under the circumstances at Haydock and she is the clear main danger ahead of Isholo du Vivien.
