In depth
Verdict
QUEMONDA (NAP) was heavily supported on her return from a long break at Bath last month but couldn't quite see of the challenge of Hashtagmetoo and was beaten a short-head. She's been left on the same mark and can go one better. Sky Bright made a bold bid to lose her maiden tag over a mile at Newmarket but was well beaten on her only start over this trip earlier. Mille Miglia was staying on over a mile at Chepstow and makes her handicap debut but Golden Viola hasn't made the expected progress after scoring at Lingfield on her debut. Golden Dove's sole success came on soft ground though she's taking a slight drop in class while none of the remaining trio can be discounted in a tight handicap.
