Lockandload was sent off at 125/1 here on her debut under Rules though finished a creditable second while Tomona wasn’t disgraced when fourth at Newton Abbot. But FOREVER A DOVE finished a street clear of the rest when worn down in the closing stages over track and trip and she gets the vote to go one better. Masked Matgil is a half-sister to five-time NH winner Dino Velvet while Magistra Equitum and Tickity Amber are other newcomers to note and Queens Highway represents last year’s winning yard.
