Plenty with claims but DONNACHIES GIRL won an apprentices’ race over 1m4f here last week and escapes a penalty. She may well go in again and confirm running with Tonto's Spirit. The latter won one of these events at Ayr earlier in the month while Duke Of Yorkshire has won under Emily Easterby before and has been placed the last twice. Canny Style looks high enough in the weights but is regularly placed and Mishko is not out of this with a leading amateur on board.
