A bright, drying day and the ground was good, with a few faster patches.

This was very open, but it went the way of the exposed DOVEDALE, who is nothing if not game.

She had won here over course and distance and the ground is obviously the key to her.

Connections are considering switching her to fences at the start of the new season later this month, but she may try her luck again over hurdles before that.

Winsley Hill had not raced since December but that did not stop her going closeon her handicap debut. On this evidence, there is a race in her on this spring ground, as she appears not to like it soft.

Ganymede should also be able to pick up a little race over the summer.

Petrus De Sormain, having his first try in handicap company, had his chance, butconnections seem to be struggling for a trip with him.
