Maiden winner Once Adaay wasn’t beaten far on her handicap debut while Northern Spirit made a winning debut in handicaps when successful over track and trip. Made Of Lir won at Lingfield before messing up the start behind Rossmore Nation, who also beat Thornaby Beauty when scoring at the same track. Trabajo Detecho finished in front of SPIRIT IN MY SOUL at Southwell but that was the latter’s first start since October and she gets a speculative vote dropping down a couple of grades with Oisin Murphy on board.
