All bets proofed to the Racing Post.

Cheveton ran another solid race in a big sprint at 1.40, he is still improving and is veryconsistent.

Yamal is a horse I've liked for sometime and although there were some hard luck stories in behind, he was only pushed out to win the 3.10. He wintered in Dubai but the fact he was switched to Godolphin rather than one of the family's UAE trainers suggested that there were UK plans on the turf this season.

Over at Salisbury (4.35), Hughie Morrison's Miss Glitters looked unbelievably well handicapped on her maiden form. I played safe with an E/W bet as this was a hands and heels race for inexperienced apprentices and I do believe she would've won with a more savvy ride. Although it's possible she wants further, she was allowed to race alone on the fair rail and gave the leading pair a massive lead coming into the last furlong. She finished strongly and only went down by a nose in the finish.

Like many John Dunlop horses recently, Dona Alba disappointed in the 7.25 at Newmarket.
