Dorotas Wildcat (Ballymac Vic-Droopys Daneel, May 15), a touch unlucky when second to track record breaking Madabout Eoghan, took a length off that Towcester 500m clock with a 29.08 run on a track rated just .10 fast. The blue jacketed 1-4 chance, who appear to be benefiting from draws closer to the rail, trapped moderately before going on to beat Bens Suprise by just over six lengths.

The meeting also featured the first sub-28.00 run for 18 months as Dave Firmager’s home bred Romeo Desperado (Head Bound-Fabulous Pin, Jan 15) clocked 27.99 when winning an A3 event by just over 10 lengths.
