Verdict

DIVINE QUICKSTEP is almost certain to improve significantly on her first run here in June, when she may have found the ground too soft. She can improve past the more exposed Julia Dream, second in both starts this year, and Heartstone, though the latter will find this easier than the handicap she contested last time at Newmarket. Blaze Of Hearts ran well on his reappearance over track and trip and should strip fitter today, though will be qualified for handicaps after this, as will Pc Dixon.
