      Verdict

      Danza Della Luna ran with credit in a recent fillies’ event at Ffos Las but this could end up being a tactically run affair and the booking of Danny Tudhope appears to be significant aboard SUPER STARS. Purple Ice didn’t follow up a fair effort at Haydock Park on reappearance and Michael Dods has elected to slap on a pair of blinkers in an effort to find the necessary improvement. Drill To Dream almost registered a win at Hamilton Park earlier in the season but there’s been little for supporters to cheer since.
