Race preview
DIDONATO looks to be improving all the time and won decisively over an extended 2m3f at Doncaster latest. This step up in trip could unlock another gear and, off an opening mark of 120, she is the one to beat. Wilde Spirit must enter calculations following a solid runner-up effort in a similar C&D event last time, while chances are also given to Winter Getaway and Easter Gold.
