Day Of Roses was entered yesterday at Cartmel so this should be plain sailing for BLACK ANTHEM (NAP). A very easy winner here a week ago, Tommie O’Brien’s claim takes care of the penalty. The Boola Bee returns off a high enough mark but the race hadn’t begun in earnest when Net Love was brought down at Southwell. Between The Waters is back on a winning mark but has become disappointing lately.
