CABOY (NAP) finally won a race for Lucinda Russell at the 18th attempt at Wetherby. He’s only gone up 3lb so will be fancied to complete a quick double. Economic Editor, lightly raced over timber, showed some promise on his chasing bow at Hexham and has scope. The selection was only fourth, and Castlegrange was pulled up, when Lisloran won at Ayr in December but the latter has looked in the handicapper’s grip lately. Divas Doyen was only beaten a neck at Musselburgh four weeks ago and is only 2lb higher so must have some sort of chance.
