DIAMOND REFLECTION is penalised for winning at Kempton last week but returned a convincing two-length winner and today’s opposition fails to inspire much confidence. Sunshineandbubbles never looked like landing a hat-trick last time though had narrowly beaten Optima Petamus with Ravenhoe well behind over track and trip before that. New Abbey Angel had been threatening to score before failing to see out the 2m trip here on his latest start and can figure while Anton Chigurh slides further down the weights as he looks to end a long losing run.
