Bromwich Sue went quickest in the heats of the Betfred Standard over 500 metres at Nottingham last night.

Lynn Cook’s Oaks runner-up flew out of the four box and was soon clear. She eventually beat Fabulous Party by nine and a half lengths in 30.16sec (-40).

A Cook double with Bromwich Tom was expected but the 4-7 favourite looked far from fluent as Final Nike made all to beat Windy Night by five and a half lengths in 30.52sec.

Pennys Jess, who took off in a recent A1 at the track was a trap to line winner of the third qualifier. Paula Timmins’ bitch came home just over two lengths clear of Mottos Mixer in 30.38sec.
