Verdict
COLORS OF FREEDOM has completed a hat-trick of Class 6 handicap victories, never winning by far and not rising much in the ratings. She's only up 2lb for her latest success and can go in again. Shine Honey Shine won a novices' race at Southwell but pulled too hard at Chelmsford and needs to settle better. Sugar Hill Babe has finished second four times in succession, all over this trip, but the lightly-raced Pride Of Yorkshire needs to do better.
