Three of these arrive on the back of maiden victories at the track with Harry Champion the most impressive ahead of Loading and Take The Helm. The former finished a couple of lengths ahead of the re-opposing Broughtons Fancy but Lightsome, Hide Your Fires and Fishergate have already been beaten in handicaps. However, ELECTRA VOICE (NAP) won a Class 3 handicap at Chelmsford last month and the hat-trick beckons for the William Haggas-trained filly as she drops down a grade off only a 3lb higher mark.
