SANTAFIORA bids for a hat-trick of course and distance wins raised only 3lb for her latest success. Julie Camacho’s mare may just edge this ahead of Turanga Leela. The latter has won twice over track and trip this winter and has switched yards since last month’s success while Independence Day posted one of his better efforts when beaten less than a length at Lingfield recently. Ty Rock Brandy has done all his winning over the minimum trip so far including here last year but Zapper Cass finished in front of Fast Track when runner-up in a claimer over 7f at the track recently and could figure.
