Vieux Carre and Regal Rhapsody were both due to run here yesterday while Lotus Rose is penalised for winning at Ripon three days ago and a high draw doesn’t help her cause. May Blossom has been well beaten since scoring in soft ground over track and trip while Cardiff disappointed back at Thirsk having gone close at the same track on her debut. ANA GOLD never threatened at Pontefract on her debut but recovered well from a slow start and she gets a speculative vote with El Divine a newcomer to note.
