Verdict
FLOWING CADENZA appears to have found a new lease of life, running well at Chepstow then landing a lucrative mares' race at Huntingdon in great style. She's been raised 8lb but holds recent easy Fakenham winner Bolintlea on that earlier Chepstow run. Advantura has yet to win but was narrowly beaten on just his second start over fences at Taunton last month and should make further progress. Winning point-to-pointer Melk Abbey was in front when unseating at Lingfield and looked a real staying type when runner-up over 2m6f on heavy ground back there last month.
