Verdict
BELLA BEAU has placed at Uttoxeter and Plumpton since returning from a lay-off. She finished ahead of Eventful on the latter occasion and is now 4lb better off with Suzi Best’s mare, who went on to beat Anthony Honeyball’s pair Rubys Reward and Glorious Isolation at the Sussex track. Torbellino appears to be improving with experience and the all-weather winner is making her handicap debut over timber today but Branson Missouri was tailed off at Exeter after scoring on heavy going at Uttoxeter.
