Verdict
DIVA’S MIX started favourite on debut at Lingfield and found only one too good. Having shown she handles the Polytrack, Nicky Henderson’s mare is likely to be a warm order to recoup losses. Haydock third Season In The Sun is open to improvement while the Camelot filly Stanley Stanley is related to winning bumpers and, given connections, can be expected to know her job. Ozzie Man is preferred to American Legacy of two winning pointers but Larusso looks more of a long-term project.
