Nananita was placed on a couple of occasions at the end of last year without threatening the winner while Quicksilver is creeping closer and returns to handicapping. But DOTTY GRAND showed improvement at Ffos Las on her handicap debut in September and a chance is taken Jamie Osborne’s filly shows further progress on her reappearance in what looks a weak sprint. Zeebad posted a better effort on the Fibresand at Southwell last time while Cherry Cola should be capable of better this year.
