Verdict

Golden Hind returned to winning ways at Thirsk and is 3lb higher than when landing this race last year. But COLONIAL LOVE has more scope having made a winning debut in handicaps with a victory at Lingfield and Hugo Palmer’s filly should make another bold bid. Miracle Eagle has been threatening to get her head in front in lower grade races while Hellenista debuts on the all-weather having won at Ripon earlier. Joie De Vivre finished runner-up over track and trip before a recent spin over hurdles.
