Verdict
Ayr Of Elegance beat Malina Ocarina, having a first run since, here last summer but hasn’t raced since second of three over fences at Hereford in October. FANCY STUFF was a beaten favourite at Warwick last month but that run may have been needed and Dan Skelton seems determined to find a race for the daughter of Presenting, who would be a good broodmare given her pedigree. Luna Dora has gone up 9lb for winning at Fakenham but Minelladestination would have a chance on the pick of her form.
