SIR HAMILTON returned a convincing three-length winner over today’s trip at Chelmsford last month. Further progress looks likely and he may well be up to conceding weight to Briscola. The latter never threatened when second over 7f at the same meeting at Chelmsford while Precious Silk failed to show any improvement at Lingfield last time having placed on her earlier debut. Aquarium is a half-brother to a couple of winners including the Group 3 winner Cubanita and is preferred to Petruchio and Possibly So of the newcomers.
