A DOLL IN MILAN (NAP) failed to cope with the step up to Listed company at Newbury last month having won a novices' event at Lingfield before that. She gets the nod back at this level. Exclusive Dancer should be better for a recent outing at Sedgefield and finished fourth over these hurdles last season while Two Swallows looks a likely improver after a hurdling debut at Ludlow. Streets Of Promise is worth noting having returned the easy winner of a bumper at Hexham and Belle De Londres is another hurdling newcomer to keep an eye on.
