Wharekura was the first to work, sprinting five furlongs in Imin oseo from a standing start. King Billy ran the last five of sis furlongs in Imin 4sec. He looks particularly well. Nadador was given long slow wcik. The mare was never in better fettle. Eurus did a round at half pace, then a round over the leucos, jumping splendidly. Tilsou did a round and a half over the feuci-s, clearing the obstacles well, then two rounds at half pace'on the fiat. iEolus'shaped nicely over the schooling hurdles, while Firelight showed a lot of pace over a few hurdles. Mahoe, Belario and Daisy Paul ran a mile together, the former finishing in front, with Daisy Paul last in Imin 51seo. Mahoe had a light weight up.
