DEODORO (NAP) showed the benefit of her opening run with an impressive all-the-way victory from better-fancied rivals at Beverley. There's much more to come and she can see off the attentions of Nice Future, who only just got up when long odds-on at Epsom though he had something in hand. Dubai's Secret landed a course and distance nursery before disappointing when well supported at Newmarket. Fast Gold has won over 5f and hasn't proved he stays this trip but Primitivo ran very well over 1m2f at Nottingham.
