Henlow Christmas Cracker runner-up Savana Donie (Ballymac Vic-Blackwater Bride, Apr 14) clocked the fastest 480 seen at Swindon in eight months when landing an Arc trialstake on Wednesday.
Jason Bloomfield’s white jacketed 2-1 chance was soon clear and came home almost five clear of Bog Brae (T1 3-1) in a time of 28.58 (N).
The meeting featured the almost inevitable double for Kevin Hutton with Huarache Scotty (28.79) and Forest Melody (29.05) with Monmore’s Skyfall Silver landing the other Arc taster in 29.00
