Diploma landed a Newmarket maiden in August but couldn't handle the step-up to Group 3 level back there in October. She'll find this less taxing but conceding weight to the hat-trick seeking SAGELY won't be easy. Ed Dunlop's filly won a maiden at Wolverhampton before a very easy victory in a handicap at Ripon on Sunday and a 6lb penalty shouldn't prevent another victory. Secret Sense had been threatening to win before easily doing so at Chelmsford so she's no forlorn hope while Turning The Table, a debut winner on heavy ground, found Listed company too hot on her reappearance at Newmarket.
