Ss Vega has never won and her best recent effort came over 6f but another maiden, Highly Focussed, ran his best race to date when stepped up to this trip at Newcastle last month. HOLLYWOOD HARRY came closest to winning when caught close home over the track and trip early last month. He won't need much more to go one better but Rioja Day is still 6lb higher than his latest victory here in October despite running moderately.
