None of these inspire confidence with a token vote going the way of maiden winner ROSE BOLT who disappointed on her handicap debut but cheekpieces are fitted for this. Shot Of Love placed at Thirsk when a hood was added to his usual blinkers while both Kentucky Bluegrass and Overnight Oats landed doubles over 7f early in the year. Canadiansmokeshow is a maiden winner while Storymaker has yet to win anywhere.
