SENOR MIRASOL, a winner first time at Southwell certainly did not mind the ground and he won decisively showing plenty of pace and keeping on well. The Super Sprint at Newbury is now on the agenda and there looks to be further improvement to come from him.Effort was not that smartly away and was then a bit keen, and having made ground to have every chance he hung left in behind the winner.
Go Nani Go was keen again but had every chance and there did not appear to be any excuses.
Ykikamoocow was a winner of a seller over the course and distance in fine style in April so strangely did not appear to be entirely happy on the undulating terrain this time. But it was still a decent effort under the circumstances and she is a deal better than a plater.
Veronicas Boy never really got in a blow but he has ability and may be fare better in nurseries later on with a longer trip suiting.
