      Verdict

      Sugar Dumpling is penalised for a recent success at Southwell and races on the Polytrack for the first time. But ZEN DANCER showed major improvement when beaten less than a length over course and distance and Martin Smith’s colt can open his account with any further progress. Four Adaay placed in handicaps on the Turf last year while Miss Seafire was sent off favourite at Southwell for her debut but never threatened and the newcomer Havana Queen is related to a couple of winners.
