Dono di Dio is 3lb higher after scoring over track and trip while Colony Queen won at Yarmouth last month. The latter beat Dusk and Progressive with By My Side further behind while Goldie Hawk is upped in class and raised 7lb bidding for a hat-trick. Rozalia, By Starlight and the more exposed Hold Fast were all placed on their latest starts while MIDRARR was a well beaten second in soft ground over 1m6f on her handicap debut. But the latter had won over today’s trip at Chester earlier and the Haggas filly gets another chance in a wide-open contest.
