Verdict
Mia Tesoro won over today’s trip on her reappearance and went in again over 1m2f at Doncaster last time. She’s upped a further 2lb but should still figure while Nona Blu finally showed some improvement after tumbling down the weights when runner-up at Brighton a week ago. AYE AYE SKIPPER also produced a better effort last time when second in a higher grade at Windsor. He may well be good enough in this company and is preferred to Kempton third Zlatan and top weight Oat Couture.
